RESUMEN
La salud mental de mujeres menores en riesgo de calle se ve seriamente afectada por las condiciones vulnerables en las que se desenvuelven; empero, mundialmente, hay pocos estudios al respecto. Este estudio se realizó para explorar la salud mental de 26 niñas y adolescentes en riesgo de calle mediante diferencias por nivel de bienestar subjetivo y el efecto de la ansiedad, depresión, asertividad y regulación emocional sobre éste. Los resultados principales muestran discrepancias significativas por grado de bienestar subjetivo en conductas asertivas y regulación emocional; consecuentemente, se encontraron deficiencias en salud mental. La utilidad clínica reside en elaborar intervenciones partiendo de las necesidades detectadas, contribuyendo, así, a mejorar la salud mental y, con ello, la calidad de vida de tal colectivo social.
