| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Forty-five women (7.7%) were classified as having high GHQ-12 scores. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that older age, not eating meals regularly, and history of depression were significantly associated with poormental health. Financial difficulty had a borderline association with poor mental health in this model.
These risk factors might help practitioners identify women at high risk of poor mental health after delivery.
