BACKGROUND
Many middle school students are depressed due to pressure from family, study, life, and communication. With the increasing depression of middle school students, professional psychological counseling institutions have also become more numerous. Therefore, students need to be guided to correctly recognize difficulties and seek professional psychological assistance.
AIM
We aimed to investigate the depression status of middle school students in the city and analyze their attitude towards professional psychological help-seeking.
METHODS
A total of 2485 students from two classes of each grade from six middle schools in the city were randomly selected as the research objects. They were subjected to answer the general questionnaire and professional psychological help-seeking attitude questionnaire to analyze their depression status, psychological help-seeking status, and attitude towards professional psychological help-seeking.
RESULTS
2485 questionnaires were distributed, and 2205 valid questionnaires were returned. A total of 791 (35.9%) of students had depressive symptoms. The detection rate and depression scores in girls were significantly higher than in boys, and the detection rate in junior high school students in the city was notably higher than in high school students and students from rural areas (P<0.05). Only 31 (3.9%) middle school students with depressive symptoms have sought professional psychological help. The scores of self-cognition, stigma tolerance, interpersonal openness, and trust scores of middle school students with depressive symptoms in help-seeking attitude were significantly lower than those of normal students, while self-stigma scores were significantly higher in those with depressive symptoms (P<0.001).
CONCLUSION
Middle school students in the city with depression have a poor attitude towards professional psychological help-seeking. Educators should positively and correctly guide depressed middle school students to seek professional psychological assistance when they need help.
背景
许多中学生因家庭、学习、生活和人际交往等方面的压力而感到抑郁。随着中学生抑郁情况的日益增多，专业心理咨询机构也变得越来越多。因此，需要引导学生正确认识困难并寻求专业心理帮助。
目的
我们旨在调查该市中学生的抑郁状况，并分析他们对寻求专业心理帮助的态度。
方法
从该市六所中学每个年级的两个班级中随机抽取2485名学生作为研究对象。他们被要求回答一般问卷和专业心理求助态度问卷，以分析他们的抑郁状况、心理求助状况以及对寻求专业心理帮助的态度。
结果
共发放问卷2485份，回收有效问卷2205份。共有791名（35.9%）学生有抑郁症状。女生的检出率和抑郁得分显著高于男生，该市初中生的检出率显著高于高中生和农村学生（P<0.05）。只有31名（3.9%）有抑郁症状的中学生寻求过专业心理帮助。有抑郁症状的中学生在求助态度上的自我认知、耻辱感容忍度、人际开放性和信任得分显著低于正常学生，而有抑郁症状的学生自我耻辱感得分显著更高（P<0.001）。
结论
该市患有抑郁症的中学生对寻求专业心理帮助的态度较差。教育工作者应积极、正确地引导抑郁的中学生在需要帮助时寻求专业心理帮助。
