There is evidence of increased psychopathology in university students and its relationship with unhealthy lifestyle habits. The objective of this work is to examine the prevalence and differences in psychopathological symptoms and lifestyle in a sample of university students according to educational levels and area of knowledge. A comparative associative study was conducted with 1405 university students. The results indicated significant differences in psychopathology and habits in the different groups. The prevalence of psychopathology found was high, especially depressive and anxious pathologies. This incidence tends to be higher in undergraduates and/or Arts and Humanities, coinciding with those who tend to have poorer lifestyle habits. The promising contributions from this study facilitate the early detection of university students with a risk profile for the appearance or exacerbation of psychopathology, as well as the design of psychological intervention programs aimed at the psychological well-being of this population.
有证据表明大学生的精神病理学现象有所增加，且其与不健康的生活方式习惯有关。这项研究的目的是根据教育水平和知识领域，调查大学生样本中精神病理症状和生活方式的患病率及差异。对1405名大学生进行了一项比较关联研究。结果表明不同组在精神病理学和习惯方面存在显著差异。所发现的精神病理学患病率很高，尤其是抑郁和焦虑病症。这种发病率在本科生和/或文科及人文学科专业的学生中往往更高，这与那些生活方式习惯往往较差的学生相吻合。这项研究做出的有益贡献有助于早期发现有精神病理学出现或加重风险的大学生，以及设计旨在促进这一人群心理健康的心理干预项目。
