Depression and anxiety are emotional difficulties that are common among adolescents. Adolescents suffering from depression and anxiety can exhibit problems such as antisocial behavior, aggression, and academic slump. This study aimed to explore the factors influencing adolescents' depression and anxiety during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
This study examined the data from an online student health survey conducted by the Ministry of Education in 2022. The survey participants were 131194 students ranging from the first grade of middle school to the third grade of high school. The influence of each variable on depression and anxiety was examined.
Factors that predicted depression and anxiety were sex (female), grade level (higher), financial difficulties (existing or unknown), physical activity (higher), sleep time (shorter), media usage time (higher), family/friends relationship (worse), and change in the health status of family, friends, and oneself due to COVID-19 (worse).
These results may help identify patterns of depression and anxiety among adolescents caused by COVID-19 and maximize the intervention effect.
抑郁和焦虑是青少年中常见的情绪问题。患有抑郁和焦虑的青少年可能会表现出反社会行为、攻击性和学业成绩下滑等问题。本研究旨在探讨2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行期间影响青少年抑郁和焦虑的因素。
本研究分析了教育部2022年开展的一项在线学生健康调查的数据。调查参与者为131194名学生,涵盖初中一年级至高中三年级。研究考察了各变量对抑郁和焦虑的影响。
预测抑郁和焦虑的因素包括性别(女性)、年级(较高)、经济困难(存在或不明)、体育活动量(较高)、睡眠时间(较短)、媒体使用时间(较长)、家庭/朋友关系(较差)以及因COVID-19导致的家庭、朋友和自身健康状况变化(较差)。
这些结果可能有助于识别COVID-19引发的青少年抑郁和焦虑模式,并使干预效果最大化。
