School mental health promotion in Indonesia: a quantitative survey from Surabaya.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Most young people live in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), yet little is known about the implementation of school mental health promotion strategies in resource-poor settings. This study describes the extent of school mental health promotion and its drivers in junior high schools in Surabaya, Indonesia. Methods: Data were obtained from a sample of 161 schools (63 public schools (100% participation), 74 private schools (28.79% participation), and 24 madrasas (42.85% participation)) using an online survey supported by the Department of Education. Descriptive statistics (ANOVA and Chi-square tests) were used to analyse data. Results: Most programs addressed mental health as part of comprehensive school health strategies derived from national and local policies. Implementation was reported through five key programs: 1) health-promoting school strategies through the school health unit, 2) safe and healthy school environments through child-friendly schools, 3) support through peer counsellors, 4) mental health as an extra-curricular health education module, and 5) mental health risk assessments to inform school interventions. Public schools reported the highest success in implementing these programs. Madrasas scored lower across all programs. Discussion: While school mental health promotion is acknowledged through national policies, its implementation in Indonesia appears to be challenging. The development of national standards, investment in school leadership, and support for broader collaboration, especially among ministries of education, religion, and health, could enhance the implementation of school mental health promotion in Indonesia.
