Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship between family structure with adolescents physical and mental health, and to provide a reference for promoting healthy development of adolescents in the family with particular structure.
Methods:The stratified random sampling method was used to select 3 941 middle school students aged 13 to 18 years in Shangrao City of Jiangxi Province. Self designed questionnaire, Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and Generalized Anxiety Scale (GAD-7) were used to assess family structure, depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms, participants were divided into underweight or overweight and obesity according to screening for underweight of school age children and screening for overweight and obesity of school age children.
Results:The proportion of adolescents with special family structure was 7.0%. Univariate analysis showed that underweight rate of adolescents with divorced parents (31.2%) was higher than that of adolescents whose parents were still married (25.3%) ( χ 2= 3.55 , P <0.05), the detection rate of depressive symptoms in adolescents with special family structure(40.9%) was higher than that in adolescents with typical family structure(34.5%) ( χ 2=4.60, P <0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the risk of depressive symptoms in adolescents with special family structure was 1.41 times higher than that in adolescents with typical family structure( 95% CI= 1.02-1.79, P <0.05).
Conclusion:No significant relationships between special family structure with underweight, overweight and obesity, and anxiety symptoms of adolescents are observed,however,special family structures are associated with increased risk of depressive symptoms in adolescents.
