摘要：Many studies have been carried out relating to certain behavioral aspects with mental health issues but only a few clustered depression, anxiety and stress together. Therefore, the aim of this study was to review and summarize findings obtained relating to previous studies that have been carried out concerning how mobile usage, shopping behavior and study habit act as predictor to depression, anxiety and stress. Most of the studies outside Malaysia employed survey method and some too carried out experiment in their research. Tracing back previous research and identifying their method, multiple analyses such as correlation, multiple regression and sequential equation modeling provided researcher with information beneficial for future research. Numerous similar and contradictory results also obtained relating to this topic. This review will extend the current literature on depression, anxiety and stress by examining the underlying contributing factors to those negative emotional states. Other than that, it can provide better understanding regarding those emotional states which can lead to better academic and social life. As studies highlighting these variables are limited, a new platform for future research could be conducted particularly among university students in Malaysia.
