mental health among teenagers and young high-school and university students distinguished by their gender. Research methodology is descriptive and non-experimental. The sample consists of 293 high-school and B.A.level college students chosen randomly for the study. The data analysis consists of the statistical method of one way analysis of variance, and the Shefe's post hoc test. The findings show that there is a meaningful correlation between age and the context and intensity of positive experiences and the level of social commitment. There is also a meaningful correlation between gender and the context and intensity of positive experiences and the level of social commitment. It was also found that those whose social commitment level is self-centered or self-indulgent, experience more anxiety, insomnia, social dysfunction and depression compared to those who have social commitment towards others. These have also lower mental health. Moreover, those who present their happy experiences containing high intensity as their source of happiness enjoy a higher level of mental health
