Measuring mental wellness among adolescents living with a physical chronic condition: A systematic review of the mental health and mental well-being instruments. BMC Psychology. 9,176. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40359-021-00680-w2050-7283https://doi.org/10.1186/s40359-021-00680-whttp://hdl.handle.net/10566/7115Globally, promoting mental health and well-being among adolescents has become a public health priority, especially for adolescents living with a physical chronic condition (CC), as research suggests they may be more at risk of developing mental health co-morbidities. Valid and reliable instruments are needed to measure and better understand mental health and mental well-being among adolescents living with a CC. To this end, we reviewed studies reporting on mental health and well-being instruments used in adolescent populations living with a chronic physical condition/disease globally.We used a systematic review method guided by PRISMA to identify assess mental health and mental wellbeing instruments used in adolescents living with a CC. In this instance, mental health instruments were defned as those representing negative domains of mental health (i.e. depression and anxiety) while mental well-being instruments included positive aspects of mental health (i.e. self-concept and resilience).enAdolescentMental HealthWell-beingHealthPsycho-social supportArticle
