Description

The time perspective of adolescents, regarding the future, involves both anxiety and hope. This study examined the relationship between time perspective and mental health, and factors that promote the reconstruction of time perspective by high school and university students. Adolescents with a positive time perspective of the past through the future were generally found to be in good mental health. However, among those with a future perspective, high school students were not in better mental health while university students were in better mental health. The results suggested that future time perspective has a different effect on mental health, depending on one's level of development. Adolescents with a positive time perspective reported a strong and well-balanced concern for life events of the past, present, and future. They were also realistic in reconstructing past life events and recognizing future events.
