Older students, women, those experiencing psychological distress, and individuals with a diagnosed mental health disorder tended to score higher on at least one dimension of MHL. Income level showed no connection with any dimension of MHL. One of the clearest distinctions appeared between domestic and international students, with domestic students consistently demonstrating higher MHL scores across all its dimensions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Efforts to improve MHL among French university students should prioritize younger students, those in non-health-related fields, and those without prior mental health diagnoses. Major attention should be paid to international students. Since different factors influence each MHL dimension, interventions should be tailored accordingly. Multifaceted approaches, such as university-based programs, digital content, and mobile apps, are recommended to effectively address the diverse components of MHL and their unique determinants.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/17579759261419118","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,28]],"date-time":"2026-02-28T05:48:18Z","timestamp":1772257698000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Exploration of factors associated with mental health literacy in French students: a dimension-specific approach"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0076-0010","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ilaria","family":"Montagni","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Bordeaux, Inserm, Bordeaux Population Health Research Center, Bordeaux, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ashlyn","family":"Schwartz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Collective Om, Jacksonville, Florida, United States"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christine","family":"Grov\u00e9","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Health and Biomedical Sciences, Department of Health Sciences, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1737-9550","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alexandra","family":"Marinucci","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Health and Biomedical Sciences, Department of Health Sciences, RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1192\/bjp.177.5.396"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12888-015-0681-9"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0706743715616609"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.psychres.2015.05.064"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12889-020-09696-0"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-2458-8-125"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11469-021-00694-w"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12889-023-17346-4"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.mhp.2021.200216"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00787-025-02648-2"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s40359-024-01878-4"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2196\/51268"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12889-024-18933-9"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijchp.2024.100489"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s40596-014-0205-9"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11121-021-01283-y"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2147\/RMHP.S289211"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjopen-2019-028913"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/07448481.2022.2063690"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_21_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.apnu.2024.06.017"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_22_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/bs12080259"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_23_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/15248399231161090"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_24_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/07067437211037131"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_25_2","article-title":"An interactive video increasing French students\u2019 mental health literacy: a mixed-methods randomized controlled pilot study","volume":"38","author":"Queroue M","year":"2021","unstructured":"Queroue M, Pouymayou A, Pereira E, Tzourio C, Gonz\u00e1lez-Caballero JL, Mon-tagni I.
