Abstract

Objective: We investigated the prevalence and distribution of depressive symptoms in individuals aged 15 and older, as well as the relationship between depressive symptoms and sociodemographic characteristics, chronic diseases, health status and health behaviors.

Method: The analysis of data collected from the Türkiye Health Surveys conducted by Turkish Statistical Institute (TURKSAT) in 2016 and 2019 involved using the Chi-Square independence test. Effect sizes were evaluated using Phi or Cramer's V coefficients. Patient Health Questionnaire-8 (PHQ-8) module was used to scan the depressive symptoms.

Results: The adult population's point of prevalence of depressive symptoms was 4.7%±0.24 in males and 8%±0.19 in females, with a population total of 6.3%±0.21. The yearly prevalence of depressive symptoms was 6.1%±0.45 in males, 13.2%±0.53 in females and a population total of 10%±0.49. Age, gender, income, education, social support, health status, disability, and chronic illnesses were found to be significant predictors of the incidence of depressive symptoms (p<0,05). The results indicated that the rate of people with depression getting help from psychologists, psychotherapists,and psychiatrists was low.

Conclusion: Age, gender, income, education, marital status, self-rated health status, social support, number of chronic illnesses, and disability were the most important risk factors for depressive episodes. In addition to such self-reported research completed before the pandemic and Kahramanmaraş earthquakes in Türkiye, further studies based on structured diagnostic interviews are required.

土耳其抑郁症状流行率及相关因素:2016年和2019年土耳其健康调查结果》。
目的我们调查了 15 岁及以上人群中抑郁症状的发生率和分布情况,以及抑郁症状与社会人口特征、慢性疾病、健康状况和健康行为之间的关系:对土耳其统计研究所(TURKSAT)在 2016 年和 2019 年进行的土耳其健康调查中收集的数据进行分析,采用了 Chi-Square 独立性检验。使用 Phi 或 Cramer's V 系数评估效应大小。患者健康问卷-8(PHQ-8)模块用于扫描抑郁症状:结果:成年人口中,男性抑郁症状的患病率为(4.7%±0.24),女性为(8%±0.19),总患病率为(6.3%±0.21)。抑郁症状的年流行率男性为 6.1%±0.45,女性为 13.2%±0.53,总人口为 10%±0.49。研究发现,年龄、性别、收入、教育程度、社会支持、健康状况、残疾和慢性病是预测抑郁症状发生率的重要因素(p 结论:年龄、性别、收入、教育程度、社会支持、健康状况、残疾和慢性病是预测抑郁症状发生率的重要因素:年龄、性别、收入、教育程度、婚姻状况、自评健康状况、社会支持、慢性病数量和残疾是抑郁症发作的最重要风险因素。除了在土耳其大流行病和卡赫拉曼马拉什地震前完成的此类自我报告研究外,还需要基于结构化诊断访谈的进一步研究。
