Description Isu gelandangan dan kesihatan mental menjadi popular apabila disensasi oleh media walhal isu tersebut sudah lama wujud dalam masyarakat bandar. Namun, disebabkan kekurangan kajian-kajian tempatan menyebabkan wujudnya kekeliruan dari segi peranan dan keberkesanan perkhidmatan yang sedia ada. Kajian ini bertujuan meneroka isu kesihatan dalam kalangan gelandangan dan minat mereka terhadap kerjaya. Borang soal selidik yang mengandungi dua instrumen iaitu Mental Health Inventory dan Holland Occupational Types dibangunkan untuk mengupas isu gelandangan. Seramai seratus sebelas orang responden telah berjaya direkrut dalam kajian ini. Hasil kajian menunjukkan kebanyakkan gelandangan yang ditempatkan di institusi pemulihan mengalami tahap kebimbangan dan tahap kemurungan yang tinggi. Terdapat hubungan yang signifikan di antara tahap kebimbangan dan tahap kemurungan dengan minat kerjaya berbentuk realistik, penyiasat dan artistik. Manakala terdapat juga hubungan di antara kawalan tingkahlaku dengan minat kerjaya berbentuk sosial dan keusahawanan. Dapatan kajian ini diharap dapat digunakan dalam merangka program intervensi yang lebih bersesuaian kepada gelandangan di institusi pemulihan. Kajian lain yang berbentuk klinikal juga perlu dilakukan bagi mengenalpasti isu kesihatan mental dalam kalangan gelandangan supaya mereka boleh mendapat rawatan kesihatan mental yang lebih baik.Kata kunci: Gelandangan; kesihatan mental; minat kerjaya; pemulihan institusi; MalaysiaABSTRACTHomelessness and mental health issues only became widely known after social media popularised and sensationalised the issue, despite a long precedent of these problems in urban areas. However, a lack of local studies on the subject has caused much confusion, especially in regard to the role and effectiveness of existing care services. This study has undertaken one aspect of this problem, namely how health issues amongst homeless people affects their interest in a career. The study was conducted by questionnaire, which consisted of two analytical measurements: the Mental Health Inventory and the Holland Occupational Types. These were developed specifically for the homeless. One hundred and eleven respondents were recruited. The study found that a majority of homeless people in rehabilation centres exhibited high levels of anxiety and depression. There were significant relationships between the level of anxiety and the level of depression with career interest. In addition, there was a significant relationship between behaviour control and career interest. The study hopes to produce a design appropriate for an intervention programme for homeless people at rehabilitation centres. Nevertheless, it recognises that more clinical studies also need to be done to examine mental health issues among homeless people so that mental health services can be improved.Keywords: Homelessness; mental health; career interest; rehabilitation institution; Malaysia
