摘要
PURPOSE: To assess the prevalence of mental illness among middle adolescents (aged 14 to 17 years) in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. METHOD: A quantitative, cross-sectional study was conducted among 483 students aged 14 to 17 years attending intermediate and secondary schools in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Participants were asked to complete the Arabic version of self-reported Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). RESULTS: SDQ scores ranged from 8 to 35, with a mean 18.5 (SD = 4.2). Several variables were significantly associated with higher SDQ scores, including age, sex, health status, and death of the mother. CONCLUSION: Results indicate that middle adolescents' prevalence of mental ness is relatively high. [Journal of Psychosocial Nursing and Mental Health Services, xx(xx), xx-xx.]
