Research on minors' mental health is an increasingly developing area. Given the increased prevalence of disorders, it seems necessary to analyze the factors that can affect poor mental health. This study analyzes the influence of occupational class, educational level, age, sex and perceived mental health of Spanish children, which is measured through the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. The sample consists of 3599 minors between 4 and 14 years old, who were interviewed through the Spanish National Health Survey 2011. Our results indicating the significant ( < 0.05) relationship between mental health, occupational class (OR 0.533) and minors' health in the last year (OR 0.313) are shown. However, gender (OR 1.187) and educational level of Pre-School Education in relation to Secondary Education (OR 1.174) and Primary Education (OR 0.996) do not generate significant differences. In conclusion, we consider it necessary to design and implement public policies aimed at improving the care system for children who have had poor or regular health in the last year, and whose parents are positioned in the lowest part of the occupational scale.
对未成年人心理健康的研究是一个日益发展的领域。鉴于疾病患病率的上升，分析可能影响心理健康不佳的因素似乎很有必要。本研究分析了职业阶层、教育水平、年龄、性别以及西班牙儿童的感知心理健康的影响，后者通过优势与困难问卷进行测量。样本包括3599名4至14岁的未成年人，他们通过2011年西班牙国民健康调查接受了访谈。我们的结果显示了心理健康、职业阶层（OR 0.533）与未成年人去年的健康状况（OR 0.313）之间的显著（<0.05）关系。然而，性别（OR 1.187）以及学前教育与中等教育（OR 1.174）和初等教育（OR 0.996）相比，并未产生显著差异。总之，我们认为有必要设计并实施公共政策，旨在改善对去年健康状况不佳或一般、且其父母处于职业等级最低层的儿童的护理体系。
