■全球许多年轻人都患有抑郁症状,特别是青年农民工,他们比非移民青年更容易受到抑郁症状的影响。鉴于所回顾的大量文献,关于压力源对年轻移民人群抑郁症状的影响知之甚少。因此,本研究旨在调查压力源对泰国年轻缅甸移民抑郁症状的影响.
■这项横断面分析研究是在2023年8月至12月之间进行的,使用自我管理的问卷。通过简单随机抽样,样本量为165名缅甸青年农民工。排除标准为患有严重身体疾病或急性精神疾病的参与者,不愿意参与研究。社会人口统计学特征,罗森博格自尊量表,和CESD(流行病学研究中心-抑郁症状)被纳入问卷。卡方和Fisher精确检验用于描述性统计。分层线性回归分析用于检验压力源之间的关联,自尊,应对行为,和抑郁症状。
■发现47.9%的缅甸年轻移民工人有抑郁症状。抑郁症状与四个变量相关:工作场所压力源(β=0.525,p<0.001),安全压力源(β=0.181,p<0.01),生活压力源(β=0.126,p<0.05),和自尊(β=-0.135,p<0.05)。
■根据层次线性回归分析,workplace,安全,生活压力源显著增加抑郁症状评分,而自尊降低了165名缅甸年轻移民工人的抑郁症状评分。因此,应鼓励决策者制定针对特定压力源的预防措施。此外,许多年轻的农民工被发现有抑郁症状。应优先考虑精神保健,并使这一脆弱和危险的群体能够获得精神保健。
UNASSIGNED: Many youths suffer from depressive symptoms globally, especially youth migrant workers who are more vulnerable to depressive symptoms than non-migrant youths. Given the extensive literature reviewed, little is known about the impact of
stressors on depressive symptoms among young migrant populations. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the impact of
stressors on depressive symptoms among young Myanmar migrants in Thailand.
UNASSIGNED: This cross-sectional analytical study was conducted between August and December 2023, using self-administered questionnaires. The sample size was 165 young migrant workers in Myanmar by simple random sampling. The exclusion criteria were participants who had serious physical illness or acute mental illness, and unwillingness to participate in the study. Sociodemographic characteristics, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and CESD (The Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depressive symptoms) were included in the questionnaires. Chi-square and Fisher exact tests were used for descriptive statistics. Hierarchical linear regression analysis was used to examine the association between
stressors, self-esteem, coping behavior, and depressive symptoms.
UNASSIGNED: It was found that 47.9% of young Myanmar migrant workers had experienced depressive symptoms. Depressive symptoms was associated with four variables: workplace stressors (β = 0.525, p <0.001), security
stressors (β = 0.181, p <0.01), living
stressors (β = 0.126, p <0.05), and self-esteem (β = -0.135, p <0.05).
UNASSIGNED: According to hierarchical linear regression analysis, workplace, security, and living stressors significantly increased depressive symptoms scores, whereas self-esteem decreased depressive symptoms scores among young 165 Myanmar migrant workers. Therefore, policymakers should be encouraged to establish preventive measures against specific
stressors. In addition, many young migrant workers have been found to experience depressive symptoms. Mental health care should be prioritized and made accessible to this vulnerable and risky group.
