Objective:

To find out distribution of levels of mental and psychologic health within a certain age group and to determine main parameters of correlation of the above mentioned health categories among the population of Kazakhstan. A large number of researchers make precise distinctions between definitions of mental and psychologic health: the first is recognized as absence of mental disorders (biologic criteria); the latter – as a whole complex of personal qualities ensuring satisfactory adaptation of a person (psychologic criteria).

Methods:

7968 respondents, aged 12 -55, underwent epidemiologic study with an aim to find out how levels of mental and psychologic health are correlated. Clinical-epidemiologic and clinical-sociologic methods were applied. There was used a special map of multilevel monitoring, which includes indicators and parameters, defining levels of mental and psychologic health.

Results:

In general, the research clarified all the difference between conceptions of mental and psychologic health; besides analysis revealed relevantly deeper crisis condition of psychologic health of population of Kazakhstan as compared to mental, as well as more dynamic reaction of a mobile level of a psychologic functional activity (psychologic health) to social and economic changes of the last decades. It is necessary to elaborate differenciated psychohygienic and psychopriphylactic approaches to the analysed health categories with more attention to psychologic.
