| Summary: | Mental health refers to our cognitive, behavioural, and emotional well-being which is all about how we think, feel, and behave. The strength of a person’s mental health has a direct link to the capability of a person to perform a variety of everyday tasks and activities. This includes the capability of a person to learn, feel and communicate a wide array of emotions as well as the capability in establishing and sustaining good relationships with others in day-to-day-proceedings. Global economy and deregulated markets have led to changes in the way financial services are performed, and this is particularly true of the organization and execution of work in this sector. These changes have caused mental health issues in young employed people, while there are others who are able to adapt to the changes and hardships that comes their way and not succumb to mental health disorders. This research uses indicators based on the Social Cognitive Theory to identify factors associated with mental health of young people while adaptability is employed as the moderator. Quantitative data will be collected using questionnaires which will be distributed to the respondents. The minimum sample size as predicted by G*Power is 85 respondents. This research can be used by academic researchers or scholars who are focusing on mental health issues among the young adults employed in the financial sector. The expected outcome of this research is to strengthen health policies by the government in order to reduce mental health problems in Malaysia. It shows that 7 hypotheses are significant, meanwhile the other 3 hypotheses are not significant. In this research it shows that the relationship between adaptability skills with mental health and self-efficacy are not significant. |
