Résumé
In this study, we use data from 27 countries on mental health status of the European Health Interview Survey wave 2 (EHIS-2), which is the instrument for collecting data on the health status, health care use and determinants of health of the population in European countries. In particular, the mental health module of the survey is collected by the PHQ-8 questionnaire. Individuals are classified according to their scores on the items of the PHQ-8 questionnaire into three categories: no depression (0-4), mild or moderate depression (5-14) and severe depression (15-24).
