Abstract

Background: Today, adolescents face increasing mental health challenges due to family conflicts, academic pressure, and societal expectations, leading to higher rates of suicide and mental disorders. Schools play a vital role in promoting mental health through mental hygiene programs. This study evaluates the knowledge and attitude of school teachers regarding mental hygiene and the effectiveness of a computer-assisted teaching program in improving both. The study aims to assess teachers’ awareness and attitudes towards mental hygiene, with a focus on improving their ability to support students’ mental well-being. Methodology: Using a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test post-test approach, the study involved 60 school teachers from Bhilai, Chhattisgarh. Data were collected using a multiple-choice questionnaire for knowledge and a Likert scale for attitude. Results: Statistical analysis showed significant improvements. Knowledge mean scores rose from 13.26 to 20.48, and attitude mean scores increased from 41.96 to 53.51 after the program. A strong positive correlation (r = 0.89) was found between knowledge and attitude. Conclusion: These improvements can better equip teachers to support students’ mental health, ultimately benefiting the overall well-being of adolescents in schools.
