Depression is one of the major concerns in adolescence, with a global prevalence of approximately 5%. Diverse environmental factors can affect the development of depression depending on the individual developmental stage.
Using data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES), we aimed to investigate the association between socioeconomic factors and mental health in a population of non-clinically ill adolescents in Korea totaling 6,261 adolescents aged 12-18 years.
Drinking, smoking, stress, depressed mood, suicidal ideation in adolescents, and stress, depressed mood, and suicidal ideation in mothers were identified as factors associated with adolescent depression. In addition to depressed mood and suicidal ideation, the higher perception of stress in mothers was related to higher stress perception, depressed mood, and suicidal ideation in adolescents. The association of adolescents' mental health with fathers' mental health was weaker than that with mothers' mental health. Additionally, increased smoking and drinking were commonly reported in adolescents with higher stress perception, depressed mood, and suicidal ideation.
We conclude that close monitoring of mental health is required for adolescents with drinking and smoking habits and mothers with mental health problems.
抑郁症是青少年时期的主要问题之一,全球患病率约为5%。根据个体发育阶段的不同,多种环境因素会影响抑郁症的发展。
利用韩国国家健康与营养检查调查(KNHANES)的数据,我们旨在调查韩国6261名12至18岁非临床患病青少年人群中社会经济因素与心理健康之间的关联。
青少年饮酒、吸烟、压力、情绪低落、自杀意念,以及母亲的压力、情绪低落和自杀意念被确定为与青少年抑郁症相关的因素。除情绪低落和自杀意念外,母亲较高的压力感知与青少年较高的压力感知、情绪低落和自杀意念有关。青少年心理健康与父亲心理健康的关联比与母亲心理健康的关联弱。此外,压力感知较高、情绪低落和有自杀意念的青少年通常报告有更多的吸烟和饮酒行为。
我们得出结论,对于有饮酒和吸烟习惯的青少年以及有心理健康问题的母亲,需要密切监测其心理健康。
