Factors Influencing the Mental Health Status of Adolescents and Their Analysis

Abstract

This article explores how family environment, school education, and academic pressure are the main factors affecting the mental health of adolescents. Analyzed the proportion of depression and anxiety among adolescents caused by family, school, and study. A comprehensive analysis framework was constructed using the Chinese Psychological Health Scale (Simplified Version) and the Depression Scale (Simplified Version) of the Survey Center, as well as multidimensional indicators such as the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (Simplified Version). Using a selection linear regression model to study the effects of family factors, school factors, and social factors on the scores of adolescent mental health scales. Research has found that the frequency of parent-child communication is negatively correlated with the risk of depression and anxiety, and the impact of left-behind status on the risk of mild depression is not statistically significant. The risk of depression and anxiety among left-behind adolescents is still higher than that of non-left-behind adolescents, indicating the importance of the family environment. In the school environment, good teacher-student and peer relationships reduce the risk of depression and anxiety, but the coefficient of the relationship with teachers cannot be accurately estimated in the model due to collinearity issues. Learning stress is complex; moderate stress is beneficial, but excessive stress can be harmful.
