摘要

目的:评价阿尔巴尼亚儿童行为因素与多项心理健康指标的独立相关性。方法:这项横断面研究于2022年在阿尔巴尼亚开展,包括5454名11岁、13岁和15岁的学童(52%女孩;应答率:96%)。除了行为特征和社会人口因素外,还收集了十项心理健康指数的数据。采用一般线性模型评估行为因素与心理健康指数的独立相关性。结果:无论社会人口统计学特征如何,与从不吸烟、从不喝酒、更积极锻炼身体的学生相比,报告终生吸烟和饮酒的学生、不经常参加体育活动的学生、至少在一个工作日不吃早餐的学生、每天不吃新鲜水果的学生的所有心理健康指数得分都明显较差。经常吃早餐,每天吃新鲜水果。结论:不考虑社会人口界限,本研究显示阿尔巴尼亚学童的行为特征与心理健康之间存在显著关联。这突出了促进儿童健康行为以减轻心理健康挑战风险的重要性。旨在鼓励定期体育锻炼、坚持早餐消费和每天摄入新鲜水果的干预措施可能会增强学龄儿童的心理弹性。

Association of behavioral characteristics and mental health indices in a large nationwide representative sample of schoolchildren aged 11-15 years in Albania.

Association of behavioral characteristics and mental health indices in a large nationwide representative sample of schoolchildren aged 11-15 years in Albania.

Aim: To assess the independent associations of behavioral factors with many mental health indices among children in Albania.

Methods: This cross-sectional study carried out in Albania in 2022 included a nationwide representative sample of 5454 schoolchildren aged 11, 13, and 15 years (52% girls; response rate: 96%). Data on ten mental health indices were collected, in addition to behavioral characteristics and sociodemographic factors. A general linear model was used to assess the independent associations of behavioral factors with mental health indices.

Results: Irrespective of sociodemographic characteristics, the scores of all mental health indices were significantly worse among schoolchildren who reported lifetime smoking and alcohol consumption, those who engaged less frequently in physical activity, those who skipped breakfast at least on one weekday, and those who consumed fresh fruit less than daily compared with their counterparts who were, respectively, never smokers, had never drunk alcohol, were more physically active, consumed breakfast regularly, and consumed fresh fruit daily.

Conclusions: Irrespective of sociodemographic boundaries, this study showed significant associations between behavioral characteristics and the mental health of Albanian schoolchildren. This highlights the importance of promoting healthy behaviors among children to mitigate the risk of mental health challenges. Interventions aimed at encouraging regular physical activity, consistent breakfast consumption, and daily intake of fresh fruit may enhance the mental resilience of school-aged children.
