(1) Determine the one-week prevalence of moderate to extreme symptoms of anxiety, stress and depression in chiropractic undergraduate students. (2) Determine whether the prevalence varies across gender and year of study. Undergraduate students at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC). A cross-sectional study was conducted in fall 2017 to measure self-reported symptoms of anxiety, stress and depression using the DASS-21. The participation rate was 67.0% (510/766). The one-week prevalence of moderate to extreme symptoms was 19.0% (95% CI: 13.0-25.0) for depression; 32.6% (95% CI: 24.7-40.3) for anxiety and 21.8% (95% CI: 15.6-28.1) for stress. The prevalence of stress varied significantly across gender: 25.4% (95% CI: 20.5-30.3) for females versus 16.3% (95% CI: 11.2-21.3) for males. The one-week prevalence of depressive (24.8%; 95% CI: 17.6-32.0) and anxiety (40.9%; 95% CI: 32.6-49.1) symptoms peaked in second year. Self-reported symptoms of anxiety, stress and depression are common in CMCC students.
(1) 确定脊骨神经医学专业本科生中一周内出现中度至重度焦虑、压力和抑郁症状的比例。(2) 确定这些症状在性别和学习年级上的分布是否存在差异。
研究对象为加拿大纪念脊骨神经医学学院（CMCC）的本科生。2017 年秋季进行了一项横断面研究，使用 DASS-21 量表测量学生自我报告的焦虑、压力和抑郁症状。参与率为 67.0%（510/766）。一周内出现中度至重度症状的抑郁比例为 19.0%（95%CI：13.0-25.0）；焦虑比例为 32.6%（95%CI：24.7-40.3）；压力比例为 21.8%（95%CI：15.6-28.1）。压力症状在性别上的分布差异显著：女性为 25.4%（95%CI：20.5-30.3），男性为 16.3%（95%CI：11.2-21.3）。一周内出现抑郁症状（24.8%；95%CI：17.6-32.0）和焦虑症状（40.9%；95%CI：32.6-49.1）的比例在二年级达到高峰。
CMCC 学生自我报告的焦虑、压力和抑郁症状较为常见。
