Young people in the UK are more likely to believe they are too fat, especially older adolescents and children from poorer backgrounds.
More than 227,000 children took part in the WHO's extensive study, and the UN health agency says its figures show that adolescent mental wellbeing in many countries declined between 2014 and 2018.
