NOTE: Mental health services for persons aged 12 to 17 includes treatment/counseling for emotional or behavioral problems not caused by drug or alcohol use. Respondents with unknown mental health service information were excluded.
NOTE: Respondents could indicate multiple service settings; thus, the response categories are not mutually exclusive.
1 Respondents could indicate multiple reasons for the last time they received mental health care in a specific service setting; thus, these response categories are not mutually exclusive. Respondents who did not indicate a reason were excluded from the analysis for the particular service category column.
2 Includes treatment/counseling received as outpatient care (e.g., care from a private therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist, social worker, or counselor; mental health clinic or center; partial day hospital or day treatment program; or in-home therapist, counselor, or family preservation worker) and inpatient or residential care (e.g., an overnight care in a hospital or residential treatment center).
3 Respondents who did not report their school enrollment status, who reported not being enrolled in school in the past 12 months, or who reported being home-schooled were not asked about receipt of mental health services or reasons for mental health care from this setting; however, respondents who reported not being enrolled in school in the past 12 months were classified as not having received treatment/counseling from this setting.
4 The Received Mental Health Services row represents all youths who received treatment/counseling regardless of whether a reason is known. The level of unknown data in this row is less than the level of unknown data in the reason for receipt of mental health service rows. The reason for receipt of mental health service rows have a smaller denominator compared to the overall received mental health services row due to the larger amount of unknown reason for treatment data.
5 Respondent self-reported in the other-specify question that he or she has a mental or neurological disorder as a reason for having received mental health services. This reason is one of the most commonly reported other reasons for having received treatment/counseling.
6 Respondents with unknown or invalid responses to the other-specify question on Some Other Reason for Receiving Mental Health Services were classified as not having received treatment/counseling for Some Other Reason.
