This study aimed to assess the social factors associated with self-reported emotional and behavioral problems among Greek adolescents.
At age 18, a population-based sample of 3373 Greek adolescents completed the Youth Self-Report (YSR) questionnaire.
The results from the multivariate analysis indicated that both lack of intimate friendships and not having parental monitoring were independently associated with problem behavior among both male and female adolescents. Engagement in sexual activities was significantly associated with higher YSR scores among both genders. Absence of academic motivation was associated with higher YSR scores in girls only.
Our results confirm that social factors, including negative family functions, lack of academic motivation and not having close friends, were associated with emotional and behavioral problems among adolescents and imply the need to develop a supportive social network for adolescents.
本研究旨在评估与希腊青少年自我报告的情绪和行为问题相关的社会因素。
18岁时,一个基于人群的3373名希腊青少年样本完成了青少年自我报告(YSR)问卷。
多变量分析结果表明,缺乏亲密友谊和没有父母监督均与青少年男性和女性的问题行为独立相关。参与性活动与两性中较高的YSR得分显著相关。缺乏学习动力仅与女孩中较高的YSR得分相关。
我们的结果证实,包括负面家庭功能、缺乏学习动力和没有亲密朋友在内的社会因素与青少年的情绪和行为问题相关,并意味着需要为青少年建立一个支持性的社会网络。
