I am working on mental health status of involuntary bachelorhood and/or the male age more than 30 years and find difficulty to find a bride for them. Are there any tools for measuring their mental heath status including quantitative as well as qualitative measures?
Please suggest me some standard questionnairs and meaurement manuals.
I suspect you'll have to focus your question before you pick a measure. Do you want a common measure such as the MMPI or Millon? A measure of anxiety or depression? A measure of interpersonal functioning? On Amazon you can buy an inexpensive copy of
Handbook of Psychological Assessment 4th Edition, Gary Groth-Marnat (Wiley, 2003)
ISBN-13: 978-0471419792
ISBN-10: 0471419796
This response may not exactly answer your question, but I am reminded of the article written by Xu Zhou, Xiao Lei Dong, Lu Wang and Therese Hesketh Li titled “The Very High Sex Ratio in Rural China: Impact on the Psychosocial Wellbeing of Unmarried Men.” It was published in 2011 in Social Science & Medicine. In the published article, the authors footnote that supplemental materials are available for download through the journal's website. I don't have the supplemental material, but they may have provided details about the mental health scale and/or interview guide that they used.
S. Béatrice Marianne Ewalds-Kvist thank you very much for providing me such a valuable source, it really helpful for me research.
