dc.description.abstractDeliberate self-harm (DSH), defined as intentional self-inflicted injury without suicidal intent, is a major global public health concern, particularly among young adults. While previous Sri Lankan studies have focused on adolescents, little is known about DSH among university students who face distinct stressors such as academic pressure and financial challenges. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and associated factors of DSH among undergraduates at the University of Moratuwa to inform effective mental health interventions.
