Abstract
Marriage immigrant women are not a homogeneous group, and their mental health can vary depending on factors such as country of origin, timing of migration, age at migration, and post-migration socioeconomic conditions. This article examines their mental health status, awareness of mental health issues, and experiences with consultation services, using data from an online survey conducted in 2024 as a preliminary to developing a health status survey protocol for this population. In addition to emphasizing the need for further research to deepen the policy understanding of mental health issues facing marriage immigrant women, this article also highlights the need for measures to improve their own understanding and awareness of such issues.
