Mental health inequities for M āori youth: a population-level study of mental health service data
CONCLUSION: Despite known high levels of mental health concerns for rangatahi Māori, administrative data suggests significant under-reporting, assessment, and treatment of emotional conditions relative to NMNP. These differences were exacerbated by deprivation. Māori were more likely to be referred to services for externalised symptoms of distress (substance use and self-harm).PMID:36521087 (Source: New Zealand Medical Journal)
