Abstract
|
|
|
Background: This study aimed to demonstrate the association between the education level of parents and adolescent depression feeling.
Methods: We used the chi-square test and the multiple logistic regression model to analyze the data of the “Korean Youth Health Behavior Survey in 2018” (n=43,220) conducted by the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Results: As a result of the analysis, a group whose parents’ education level is ‘above the university graduation (including the graduation of the college)’ had statistically significant experience of depression than a group whose parents’ education level is ‘high school graduation.’
Conclusion: When preparing a policy on adolescent depression feeling, we need to consider the association between the education level of parents and adolescent depression feeling. Especially, a higher level of education of parents needs attention and management to foster positive mental health rather than excessive academic pressure, especially in the parent-child relationship of the same gender.
