Mental health literacy is a suitable for early identification of mental disorders, decreasing stigma towards people with mental disorders or seeking help, and improving help-seeking behavior. Purpose: To detemine the influence of mental health literacy to help-seeking behavior and to describe mental health literacy and help-seeking behavior of the medical students. Methods: This study is an observational analytical study.

Logistic regression was used to measure the influence of mental health literacy to help-seeking behavior. Results: Sixty respondents were included.

Only some attributes of the MHLS has lower scores such as selftreatments, confidentiality, social distance, and reliance on self.
