摘要

虽然以往的研究探讨了跨境移民对经济发展和其他社会问题的影响，但关注移民对本地人口心理健康潜在影响的研究却很有限。本文考虑到各种心理健康疾病，调查了跨境移民对泰国本地人心理健康的影响。本研究使用空间面板自回归模型分析了 2016 年至 2021 年的 77 个省级数据集。研究结果表明，在 5%的显著性水平上，移民的存在并未对本地人口的心理健康产生不利影响。值得注意的是，在 5%的显著性水平上，移民的存在降低了药物滥用疾病的发病率。此外，在 5%的显著性水平上，失业、教育、公共卫生服务、技术基础设施、健康风险行为和年龄也是影响本地人心理健康的重要因素。这项研究强调，需要采取综合方法来制定有效的心理健康政策和措施，以解决这些多重因素。

Cross-Border Migration and Its Influence on Mental Health Dynamics in Thailand: An Empirical Analysis of Provincial Data

While previous research has examined the impact of cross-border migrants on economic development and other social issues, limited studies have focused on the potential effects of migrants on the mental health of the native population. This paper investigates the impact of cross-border migrants on the mental health of natives in Thailand, considering various mental health disorders. This study analyzes 77 provincial data sets from 2016 to 2021 using a spatial panel autoregressive model. The findings suggest that the presence of migrants did not have an adverse influence on the mental health of the native population at a 5% significance level. Notably, there is a reduction in the prevalence of substance abuse disorders associated with the presence of migrants at the 5% significance level. Additionally, unemployment, education, public health services, technological infrastructure, health risk behavior, and age are significant contributors to the mental health of natives at a 5% significance level. The study underscores the need for a comprehensive approach to developing effective mental health policies and initiatives that address these multiple contributors.
