——《焦虑、压力与应对》,在线发表日期:2025年9月5日——
【摘要】背景:对许多学生而言,成年早期和大学入学都伴随着新的生活境遇,这增加了他们接触负面生活事件(NLE)的机会。此类事件可能对学生的心理健康产生持久影响。本研究以学生为样本,开展了一项探索性研究,旨在考察负面生活事件的发生频率、事件共现情况以及相关的心理健康后果。方法:650名大学生完成了学生负面生活事件量表和抑郁、焦虑、压力问卷。研究分析了女性和男性在整个生命周期以及过去12个月内经历的负面生活事件的常模数据,以概述学生的经历。对过去12个月内经历的负面生活事件进行探索性因素分析,考察了事件的共现情况及其相关的脆弱性。结果:98%的学生至少经历过一次负面生活事件,其中50%的事件发生在过去12个月内。与学业问题和家庭暴力相关的事件与较差的心理健康状况相关,这些事件较为常见,且发生时间相对较近。研究确定了六个因素,表明某些负性生活事件(NLE)会同时发生。结论:这些发现证实了大学生中负性生活事件的高发率,其中心理/成瘾问题和学业压力与较差的心理健康状况关联最为密切。这些发现可为有针对性的学生心理健康支持项目提供参考。

[Abstract] Background: Early adulthood and commencing university coincide with new life circumstances for many students which increases exposure to negative life events (NLE). Such events can have lasting impacts on student mental health. An exploratory study was conducted in a student sample to examine the frequency of NLE, event co-occurrence, and associated mental health outcomes. Methods: Six-hundred-and-fifty university students completed the Negative Life Events Scale for Students and the Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale. Normative data was examined for NLE’s experienced by women and men across the lifespan, and in the last 12-months to provide an overview of students’ experience. An exploratory factor analysis on the experience of NLE in the last 12-months examined co-occurrence of events and associated vulnerability. Results: Ninety-eight percent of students experienced at least one NLE, and 50% were experienced in the last 12-months. Events relating to academic problems and domestic violence were associated with poorer mental health, were common, and occurred relatively recently. Six factors were identified demonstrating some NLE co-occur. Conclusions: These findings confirm the high prevalence of NLE among university students, with psychological/addiction issues and academic pressures had the strongest associations with poorer mental health. Findings may inform targeted student mental health support programs.
