This study aims to determine the prevalence of self-harm and non-suicidal self- injury tendencies and the common form of self-harm among those who are in late childhood up to the earlier years of adolescence. Moreover, this action research also gauges the overall psychological distress of the respondents in the dimensions such as subjective well-being, problems and symptoms, life functioning and, risk and harm. It was participated by 301 school-going adolescents under ages 9 to 11 years old and employing a standardized self-report questionnaire (Clinical Outcomes Result Evaluation).
