AIA Australia, supported by Quantium Health, investigate the possibility of predicting the risk of depression

As a life and health insurer operating across 19 countries in the Asia-Pacific, AIA is committed to understanding the factors that impact mental health. We are also dedicated to improving mental wellbeing both earlier on and more effectively.
 
We partnered with Quantium Health to conduct a study identifying whether it is possible to predict the risk of depression using demographic, behavioural, and environmental factors. The intention of this study is to shed light on complex problems and identify solutions that could be implemented by professionals and affected individuals.
 
The key insights of this research help by defining risk factors for depression, identifying people with the highest risk, and providing additional evidence for supporting interventions that are more likely to be effective.
