The footprint of humans with serious psychological distress: a cross-sectional study of 1.5 million adults in the United States

Abstract

results The prevalence of SPD was found to be 3.4%. The number of individuals with SPD increased from 2012 to 2018 by 34.1%. As indicated by multiple logistic regression analyses, individuals who have less than $35 000 family income have six times higher risk of SPD occurring (OR = 6.31), while white females (OR = 1.93) in the age group of 45-64 (OR = 2.01) who are not employed but have worked previously (OR = 1.25), and are divorced or separated (OR = 1.57) have a two-fold higher risk for the occurrence of this type of disorder. In addition, the risk of SPD is fivefold higher in poor individuals (OR = 4.81) with inadequate education (OR = 5.44).
