This study maps the current epidemiological situation of mental disorders in Slovakia. The aim of the study is to determine the prevalence of selected mental disorders in the adult population of the Slovak Republic, assess the availability and use of mental health care services, evaluate the impact of symptoms of selected mental disorders on quality of life and functional capacity, and identify population groups at the highest risk of not using available services despite the presence of mental disorders. The proposed project will provide unique data that have not yet been available in Slovakia on the prevalence of the most common mental disorders in the adult population in relation to age, gender, level of education, and broader social and economic contexts. It will also offer insights into the relationship between risk factors and the onset and course of these mental disorders, their overall societal impact, and the use or absence of mental health care services.
