使用抑郁、焦虑和压力量表 (DASS-21) 测量牙科本科生抑郁、焦虑和压力的发生率和水平。 这项横断面研究于2014年11月和12月进行。共有289名牙科学生受邀参与，277名学生做出回应，回应率为96%。最终样本包括 247 名参与者。符合条件的参与者通过自我报告的问卷进行了调查，其中包括经过验证的 DASS-21 量表作为评估工具以及有关人口特征和压力管理方法的问题。 分别有 55.9%、66.8% 和 54.7% 的研究参与者出现抑郁、焦虑和压力异常水平。多元线性回归分析揭示了多个预测因素：性别（焦虑 b=-3.589，p=.016 和压力 b=-4.099，p=.008）、对教师关系的满意度（针对抑郁 b=-2.318，p=.007；焦虑 b=-2.213，p=.004；和压力 b=-2.854，p<.001）、对同伴关系的满意度（针对抑郁） b=-3.527，p<.001；焦虑 b=-2.213，p=.004；压力 b=-2.854，p<.001），牙科是学习领域的首选（压力 b=-2.648，p=.045）。标准化系数证明了每个子量表的预测变量的关系和强度。为了应对压力，学生们从事各种活动，如阅读、看电视和寻求他人的情感支持。 牙科学生抑郁、焦虑和压力的发生率很高，凸显了提供支持计划和实施预防措施来帮助学生的重要性，特别是那些最容易受到这些心理状况影响的学生。
To measure the occurrence and levels of depression, anxiety and stress in undergraduate dental students using the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21). This cross-sectional study was conducted in November and December of 2014. A total of 289 dental students were invited to participate, and 277 responded, resulting in a response rate of 96%. The final sample included 247 participants. Eligible participants were surveyed via a self-reported questionnaire that included the validated DASS-21 scale as the assessment tool and questions about demographic characteristics and methods for managing stress. Abnormal levels of depression, anxiety and stress were identified in 55.9%, 66.8% and 54.7% of the study participants, respectively. A multiple linear regression analysis revealed multiple predictors: gender (for anxiety b=-3.589, p=.016 and stress b=-4.099, p=.008), satisfaction with faculty relationships (for depression b=-2.318, p=.007; anxiety b=-2.213, p=.004; and stress b=-2.854, p<.001), satisfaction with peer relationships (for depression b=-3.527, p<.001; anxiety b=-2.213, p=.004; and stress b=-2.854, p<.001), and dentistry as the first choice for field of study (for stress b=-2.648, p=.045). The standardized coefficients demonstrated the relationship and strength of the predictors for each subscale. To cope with stress, students engaged in various activities such as reading, watching television and seeking emotional support from others. The high occurrence of depression, anxiety and stress among dental students highlights the importance of providing support programs and implementing preventive measures to help students, particularly those who are most susceptible to higher levels of these psychological conditions.
