Variables included: (1) Academic/work stress: PSS-10 scores, prevalence of clinical stress, main stressors (job insecurity, workload, publish-or-perish pressure, funding); (2) Career satisfaction: percentage of overall satisfaction by region/discipline, means on Likert scales; (3) Burnout and work-life balance: MBI scores (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, personal accomplishment), burnout prevalence, weekly working hours, percentage with overwork (>50h/week), COVID-19 impact; (4) Perceived institutional support: percentage rating institutional support as adequate, correlates with satisfaction and burnout. Regions covered: Global, U.S., UK, Europe (Germany, Spain, Poland, Finland, Italy), Asia (China, South Korea, Malaysia), Brazil/Latin America. Main sources: Nature PhD Survey (2019, 2022; n=6,063), Wellcome Trust surveys (2021-2022; n=4,000+), OECD (2023), regional surveys in PMC/PubMed and ASEAN Journal of Psychiatry. Note: Some data are estimates or ranges from multiple studies. Sample sizes and sources are included for each observation.本数据集汇编了2019至2024年间全球及区域层面的学术研究者与高校学生（含本科生、研究生）心理健康福祉相关统计数据与实证依据。数据通过基于高质量原始来源的Perplexity AI辅助检索收集获取。本次纳入的变量包括：(1) 学术/工作压力：知觉压力量表10条目版（Perceived Stress Scale 10-item, PSS-10）得分、临床压力患病率、主要压力源（职业不安全感、工作负荷、不发表即淘汰压力、经费保障问题）；(2) 职业满意度：按区域/学科划分的整体满意度占比、李克特量表均值；(3) 职业倦怠与工作生活平衡：马氏倦怠量表（Maslach Burnout Inventory, MBI）得分（涵盖情绪衰竭、去人格化、个人成就感三个维度）、职业倦怠患病率、周工作时长、每周工作时长超50小时的人群占比、新冠疫情的影响；(4) 感知机构支持：认为机构支持充足的人群占比，及其与职业满意度、职业倦怠的相关性。数据集覆盖区域包括全球、美国、英国、欧洲（德国、西班牙、波兰、芬兰、意大利）、亚洲（中国、韩国、马来西亚）、巴西及拉丁美洲。核心数据来源包括：《自然》博士研究生调查（2019、2022年；样本量n=6063）、惠康信托基金调查（2021-2022年；样本量n=4000+）、经合组织（OECD，2023年）、PubMed Central/PubMed收录的区域调研以及《东盟精神病学杂志》刊载的相关研究。备注：部分数据为多项研究整合得出的估算值或区间范围，每条观测结果均标注了对应样本量与数据来源。
