Abstract

College students’ mental health problems become a popular topic in higher education these days. Professional mental help-seeking behaviors are significant to college students’ mental health. There are many existing pieces of research about influencing factors on college students’ mental help-seeking behaviors but with a less systematic summary. Therefore, this paper collects information and data about influencing factors of help-seeking behaviors by searching words “mental help-seeking”, “psychological help-seeking”, “professional mental treatment” mainly in Google Scholar and CNKI. Through studying these data, this study indicated that influencing factors can be divided into external and internal factors respectively, which function can be described as positive or negative. What’s more, some controversial and interaction factors are discussed in this paper. The purpose of this paper is to use a new classification of mental help-seeking influencing factors to help colleges establish a more comprehensive plan for future mental health education.
