In addition to self-esteem, anxiety and stress, the scores of quality of life\n and mental health of adolescents of different grades and genders in Zhengzhou were\n statistically different (\n t = 13.53, 20.71, 10.92, 20.26, 14.68, −16.03, 21.26; 6.16, 3.81, −2.22, −0.33, 8.76,\n 4.16, 2.71, P<0.01). The quality of life of adolescents in HongKong and Taiwan in different grades\n and genders were basically the same as those in Zhengzhou, and the differences of\n depression and stress scores in grades were the same as those in Zhengzhou.\n Conclusion The overall quality of life and mental health of adolescents in Zhengzhou is better\n than that in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
