The commentary cites a study by Li and colleagues (2022) that conducted a comprehensive study of depression and anxiety symptoms among college students worldwide. We highlight the valuable contribution of this work to ongoing research, policy, and practice related to the early diagnosis and prevention of depression and anxiety symptoms in college students. The comprehensive report compensates for the lack of similar comprehensive studies in relevant areas and draws attention to the limitations of this and similar studies that require new solutions if well‐designed, theoretically robust and implementable interventions are to be advanced. The author's work is timely and persuasive, providing important insights and theoretical support for specific work in the field of mental health of college students
