Immigrant-origin minors may face challenges that are burdensome to their mental health. This dissertation investigates whether there is a mental health disparity between immigrant-origin and the majority population non-immigrant minors in Finland, with an aim to identify key risk factors and psychosocial resources linked with mental health among this population. The population-based School Health Promotion Studies (2017–2023) and the Youth Future Report 2023 were the data investigated in the five part-studies of this dissertation.

Consumer research has shown that brands benefit from consumers’ trust in them. However, although consumers’ distrust of brands can accordingly have harmful effects on brands, the antecedents of young consumers’ brand distrust are not entirely clear. This study proposes a model for young consumer’s brand distrust antecedents based on the integration of our findings and prior research.

Highlights
• This study sheds light on the antecedents of young consumers’ brand distrust.
• Latent Dirichlet allocation and manual coding were used together.
• The proposed brand distrust model integrates past and present findings.
• Bad reviews, fake news, SMI cooperation, and impression management raise distrust.
• Profit focus, unrealistic advertising, and poor content also raise distrust.
