背景印度尼西亚抑郁症的患病率估计约占总人口的3.7%，尽管实际情况可能更高。世界各地的研究已经将人们生活的环境与他们的心理健康状况联系起来。然而，在印度尼西亚，关于这种联系的研究很少。我们调查了个人对邻居的看法和他们的抑郁症状之间的联系。方法根据2014年印度尼西亚家庭生活调查5(IFLS5)，从个人(1级)和社区(2级)两个层面对社会信任进行测量。采用由10个条目组成的流行病学研究中心抑郁量表(CESD-R-10)测量抑郁程度，并使用Rasch模型将得分转换为Logit形式。使用多水平回归来确定相关性。结果在这项研究的14,227名受访者中，约19.4%的人在过去一周内经历了严重的抑郁症状。研究发现，社会信任与严重的抑郁症状显著相关。个人对邻居的社会信任度越低，出现严重抑郁症状的可能性就越高。结论社会信任与抑郁症状的严重程度相关，社会信任度越高，出现严重抑郁症状的概率越低。抑郁症状也可能归因于社区之间的显著差异。
Background Prevalence of depression in Indonesia is estimated at about 3.7% of the total population, although the actual may be higher. Studies worldwide have linked the environment where people live to their mental health status. However, little research is found in Indonesia regarding this link. We examined the association between individuals' perception towards their neighborhood and their depression symptoms. Methods Social trust was measured at the individual (level 1) and community (level 2) levels based on the Indonesian Family Life Survey 5 (IFLS5) in 2014. Depression was measured using the 10-item Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale Revised (CESD-R-10) and the scores were transformed into logit form using the Rasch model. Multilevel regression was used to determine correlations. Results Of the total sample of 14,227 respondents in this study, about 19.4% had experienced severe depression symptoms in the past week. Social trust was found to be significantly associated with severe depression symptoms. The weaker the individuals' social trust towards their neighbourhood, the higher the probability of experiencing severe depression symptoms would be. Conclusions This study shows that social trust is associated with the severity of depression symptoms: the higher the social trust, the lower the probability of having severe depression symptoms is. Depression symptoms may also be attributed to significant differences between communities.
