6、using a self-administered survey from January to March in2018 at a national university in Vietnam, and a state university in the US. The study revealed differences inperceptions of causes of mental health between Vietnam

7、ese and US participants. Vietnamese participants tendedto believe that individuals with mental illness were dangerous and need to be kept out from the community,while US participants perceived that mental illnesses are t

8、he same as other illnesses. An important indicator ofVietnamese perceptions of mental health was the low likelihood of seeking formal help because of preference forseeking help from family or friends for mental illness.

10、duce stigma toward mental illness in Vietnam.1. IntroductionThe global burden of mental health disorders is a significant publichealth issue (World Health Organizations, 2017). Mental health is oneof the most recent addi

11、tions to the United Nations Sustainable Devel-opment Goals, while historically the majority of the goals were forcommunicable diseases (World Health Organizations, 2018). One po-pulation that has a risk for mental health

12、 issues is college students(Balon et al., 2015; Bruffaerts et al., 2018). A previous study conductedin the United States (US) shows that mental health issues includinganxiety, depression, and relationship problems among

13、college studentsare increasing concerns (Mistler et al., 2012). Among college studentsin Singapore, the prevalence of social networking addiction, which isalso related to other sorts of addiction and affective disorder,

14、is high(Tang and Koh, 2017). A study on psychological distress among collegestudents in India suggests that psychological distress, which is asso-ciated with other negative outcomes (e.g. academic failures, substanceabus

15、e, suicidality), is common (Jaisoorya et al., 2017). Adolescents andyoung adults who reported self-injurious behaviors were more likely tohave suicidal intent in India (Bhola et al., 2017). Social phobia is also aproblem

16、 among university students in India (Joseph et al., 2018).Vietnam is a country that does not have much research on mentalhealth, since its main public health focuses are still on infectious dis-eases (US Agency for Inter

17、national Development, 2018). The highburden of mental illness and a lack of mental health legislation andresources are problems in Vietnam (Vuong et al., 2011). A householdstudy conducted in Vietnam found that the issues

18、 stem from a lack ofknowledge about mental illness, and the preference of combiningmedical treatment and family care to cure mental illness (van der Hamet al., 2011). A study conducted in Southeast Asian countries, inclu

19、dingVietnam, suggested that suicidal ideation rates among college studentswere 11.7%, while similar rates for this age group in the U.S. were at8.8% (Peltzer et al., 2017). Yet, little is known about perceptions ofmental
