Abstract

With the progress of education and social development, mental health issues among middle school students are increasingly gaining attention. This study employs the entropy weight method to assess the mental health of middle school students, establishing a mental health capability index system and quantifying relevant data. Case data analysis reveals that social activities and parental relationships have the greatest impact on students' mental health, while study time, academic burden, and school atmosphere have relatively smaller effects. The research helps understand the mental health status of students and provides a basis for formulating reasonable educational strategies, thus promoting the comprehensive development of students.
