DE LA CRUZ-SANCHEZ, Ernesto; FEU, Sebastián  e  VIZUETE-CARRIZOSA, Manuel. Educational Level as a Member of the Subjective Well-Being and Mental Health in the Spanish Population. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2013, vol.12, n.1, pp.31-40. ISSN 1657-9267.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between the educational level with the perceived emotional well-being and the mental health of the Spanish population. In a total of 29,478 adults, participating in the Spanish National Health Survey 2006, we found that low education level is related with poor mental health (OR 1.65 in men and OR 2.36 in women), poor or very poor self-perceived health (OR 2.10 OR 2.53 for men and women), less social support (OR 1.31 OR 1.66 for men and women) and inactivity (OR 2.09 OR 1.80 for men and women). In the Spanish population the educational level is an associated factor related with different health dimensions and to the subjective well-being and mental health perceptions.
