Helping intentions of undergraduates towards their depressed peers: A cross-sectional study in Sri Lanka.
Amarasuriya, S., Reavley, N., Rossetto, A., & Jorm, A.
Despite showing high rates of depression, university students prefer to seek assistance for their depression from informal sources, such as their friends, rather than seeking professional assistance. Therefore, the helping behaviours of those who provide informal help to these students need examination. This study examines the helping intentions of undergraduates in Sri Lanka towards their depressed peers and the correlates of their helping intentions.
