Polyvictimization and Mental Health Outcomes Among Youth in Uganda and Ethiopia

2022 and 2024 data from Uganda and Ethiopia examines the association between polyvictimization and poor mental health outcomes among 13-24-year-olds. The 5.5 KB XLS file contains results from bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. It was authored by Stella Muthuri and last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Train logistic regression models to predict mental distress based on polyvictimization risk factors.
• Analyze the association between household food insecurity and suicidal ideation among youth.
• Compare mental health outcomes for females and males in challenging circumstances within the survey data.

Strengths

• Data covers two distinct countries and time periods (Uganda 2022, Ethiopia 2024).
• Analysis includes both bivariate and multivariate logistic regression models.
• Dataset is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The 5.5 KB size suggests a very limited scope, likely containing summary results rather than raw survey data.
