According to various studies, depression is one of the contributing factors to suicide. People with depression have suicidal thoughts several times higher than those without depression.

The Kemenkes survey also found that 61% of the population aged 15-24 who experienced depression had considered ending their lives.

Kemenkes conducted this depression survey using the mini international neuropsychiatric interview (MINI) questionnaire, a short interview method consisting of 10 yes/no questions.

The questions consist of 3 main symptoms of depression and 7 additional symptoms. If a respondent has at least 2 main symptoms and 2 additional symptoms, they are considered to be experiencing depression.

Kemenkes conducted this survey on approximately 315,000 households spread across 38 provinces and 514 regencies/cities in Indonesia in 2023.
