摘要

社区身体和社会障碍对居民的心理健康有不利影响。识别和应对邻里挑战对于促进社会凝聚力和精神健康至关重要。尽管如此,加拿大国内对这一重要课题的研究还很缺乏,这促使人们对社区面临的挑战与自我评估的心理健康之间的关系进行了全面的评估。利用2018年(N = 61,021)和2021年(N = 40,988)加拿大住房调查并采用logistic回归模型进行比较分析,我们发现,在面临骚扰、吸毒、醉酒、夜间不安全、噪音、烟雾/空气污染、垃圾和故意破坏等挑战的社区,居民在COVID-19大流行前和期间都报告了较低的积极心理健康(PMH)几率。此外,在大流行前和大流行期间,女性报告的PMH发病率较低。然而,在大流行之前和期间,受过高等教育的居民、来自富裕家庭的居民和两口之家的居民报告了大量PMH。与当地社区的公民参与也与PMH更相关,但仅在大流行前。进一步观察各省的差异。因此,我们得出结论,邻里挑战会导致心理健康状况不佳。社会经济和各省的差异强调了在各区域为精神卫生量身定制干预措施和支持系统的重要性。然而,重要的是要强调,我们数据的自我报告性质可能导致偏见的看法。也就是说,参与者现有的较差的心理健康状况可能会影响他们对社区的看法。此外,社会期望影响反应的趋势可能表明一种双向的邻里-心理健康关系。

Do neighbourhood challenges affect the mental health of residents? Insights from the 2018 and 2021 Canadian Housing Surveys

Do neighbourhood challenges affect the mental health of residents? Insights from the 2018 and 2021 Canadian Housing Surveys

Neighbourhood physical and social disorders are shown to have adverse impacts on residents’ mental health. Identifying and addressing neighbourhood challenges is crucial for promoting social cohesion and mental well-being. Nonetheless, there is a dearth of research on this important topic within Canada, prompting a comprehensive evaluation of the association between neighbourhoods’ challenges and self-rated mental health. Using the 2018 (N = 61,021) and 2021(N = 40,988) Canadian Housing Surveys and employing logistic regression models for comparative analysis, we found that residents of neighbourhoods with challenges including harassment, drug use, drunkenness, unsafeness at night, noise, smog/air pollution, garbage litter, and vandalism, reported lower odds of positive mental health (PMH) both pre-pandemic and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, females reported lower odds of PMH both pre-pandemic and during the pandemic. However, residents with post-secondary educational attainment, those from wealthy households, and those in two-member households, significantly reported PMH before and during the pandemic. Civic engagement with the local community also correlated more with PMH, but pre-pandemic only. Provincial variations were further observed. Thus, we concluded that neighbourhood challenges contribute to poor mental health. Socio-economic and provincial differences underscore the importance of tailored interventions and support systems for mental health across regions. However, it is important to highlight that the self-reported nature of our data may result in biased perceptions. That is, participants’ existing poorer mental health status may influence their opinions about the neighbourhoods. Also, the tendency of social desirability to influence responses may suggest a bidirectional neighbourhood-mental health relationship.
