Journal of Health Monitoring
The Journal of Health Monitoring is an online journal published by the Robert Koch Institute. The new format within the portfolio of Federal Health Reporting is aimed at a broad (specialist) audience and focuses on important public health issues.
The journal offers scientific information on the health of the population in Germany. The analyses are mainly based on data of the health surveys conducted by the Robert Koch Institute. These analyses are presented in the form of focus articles and fact sheets which are linked by a common theme.
The Journal of Health Monitoring is published quarterly in German and English. All contributions to the journal are subject to peer review and can be downloaded free of charge from the website of the Robert Koch Institute.
Journal of Health Monitoring 4/2021:
December 2021 ISSUE 4
Mental Health
The first Focus article of the issue analyses the relationship between mental health problems in childhood or adolescence and developmental outcomes in young adulthood. These include aspects of mental health, life satisfaction and health-related quality of life, latest educational status, partnership status as well as aspects of sexual and reproductive health.
The second Focus article examines the relationship between socioeconomic status, mental health issues and personal, social and family resources in childhood and adolescence, in particular the extent to which children from socially disadvantaged families benefit from psychosocial resources.
The fourth Focus article focusses on the establishment of a Mental Health Surveillance (MHS)
in Germany. MHS aims to
continuously report data for relevant mental health indicators, thus creating a basis for evidence-based planning
and evaluation of public health measures. The article describes the development of the framework concept and indicator
set of the MHS.
In addition, a methodological article presents the MHS
at federal state level, in particular the reporting on psychiatry in Bavaria.
