Almost a third of those questioned in the YLT survey had experienced serious personal, emotional or mental health problems One in ten 16-year-olds in Northern Ireland who took part in a new study have said they have considered self-harming or taking an overdose. The annual Young Life and Times (YLT) survey was carried out by Queen's and the University of Ulster. It also revealed that almost a third of those questioned had experienced serious personal, emotional or mental health problems. Researchers interviewed 1,367 16-year-olds. Dr Dirk Schubotz from the School of Sociology, Social Policy and Social Work at Queen's University and YLT director, said: "These findings from the YLT survey show that despite the investment in mental health services in Northern Ireland, compared to five years ago, there has been virtually no change with regard to young people's experiences of stress and mental health problems. 'Self-punishment' "It is particularly significant to note that still only a small minority of 16-year-olds seek professional help when experiencing serious emotional health problems. "Although mental health campaigns have for some time attempted to de-stigmatise mental ill-health, by far the most likely reason why young people self-harm remains self-punishment. "This suggests that young people with mental health problems keep blaming themselves for these, rather than appreciating external stressors such as pressures arising from school work or financial difficulties." The key findings of the 2013 survey on 16-year-olds' mental health include: 28% of 16-year-olds said that they had experienced serious personal, emotional or mental health problems at some point in the past year. Just over one third of these respondents had sought professional help for these problems. 13% of respondents said that they had, at some point in the past, seriously thought about taking an overdose or harming themselves, and 6% had thought about this in the past month. 13% of respondents said they had self-harmed - 5% had done so once and 8% more than once. The most likely reason (60%) given by these young people for doing this was that they 'wanted to punish themselves'. The survey was undertaken by ARK on behalf of the universities. The research aims to give an insight into the lives of 16-year-olds across Northern Ireland, by addressing a range of key issues. |
據(jù)英國廣播公司（BBC）5月16日?qǐng)?bào)道，在一項(xiàng)名為“青少年生活與境況”（YLT）的調(diào)查中，幾乎三分之一的調(diào)查對(duì)象曾經(jīng)歷嚴(yán)重的個(gè)人、情感或心理問題。 參與此次新調(diào)查的北愛爾蘭地區(qū)的十六歲青少年中，有十分之一稱曾有過自殘或服食過量藥物的念頭。 每年一次的“青少年生活與境況”調(diào)查活動(dòng)由女王大學(xué)和阿爾斯特大學(xué)聯(lián)合開展。 調(diào)查還顯示，幾乎三分之一的被調(diào)查者曾經(jīng)歷過嚴(yán)重的個(gè)人、情感或心理問題。 研究者此次共調(diào)查1367名16歲青少年。 女王大學(xué)社會(huì)學(xué)、社會(huì)政策和社會(huì)工作學(xué)院的舒爾伯茨（Schubotz）博士是YLT的負(fù)責(zé)人，他說：“此次YLT調(diào)查得出的結(jié)果顯示，盡管與五年前相比，北愛爾蘭地區(qū)心理健康服務(wù)投資加大，但考慮到青少年所經(jīng)歷的壓力和心理健康問題，情況幾乎沒有得到改變?！?/p> 自我懲罰 “特別需要注意的是，只有一小部分16歲青少年在經(jīng)歷嚴(yán)重的情感健康問題時(shí)會(huì)尋求專業(yè)性幫助?！?/p> “盡管心理健康活動(dòng)在一段時(shí)間內(nèi)為心理不健康除去了污名，但迄今為止，青少年進(jìn)行自殘的最可能的原因就是進(jìn)行自我懲罰。” “這表明這些有心理問題的青少年一直為這些事情不斷責(zé)怪自己，而不是把問題歸咎到外部壓力源身上，如來自學(xué)業(yè)和資金困難方面的壓力?！?/p> 2013年對(duì)16歲青少年心理健康進(jìn)行的調(diào)查的重要發(fā)現(xiàn)如下： 28%的16歲青少年稱，在過去一年中的某些時(shí)刻，他們經(jīng)歷過嚴(yán)重的個(gè)人、情感和心理問題。 而只有略多于三分之一的調(diào)查對(duì)象在遇到這些問題時(shí)尋求過專業(yè)性幫助。 13%的調(diào)查對(duì)象說，在過去的某一時(shí)刻，他們嚴(yán)肅地考慮過服食過量藥物或者進(jìn)行自殘，6%的在過去的一個(gè)月有過這種念頭。 13%的調(diào)查對(duì)象表明他們?cè)詺堖^：5%自殘過一次，8%自殘過不止一次。青少年有如此行為的最可能的原因（60%）就是他們‘想要懲罰自己’。 此次調(diào)查由APK以女王大學(xué)和阿爾斯特大學(xué)名義進(jìn)行。 研究目的在于通過解決一系列關(guān)鍵問題，深入探究北愛爾蘭地區(qū)16歲青少年的生活。 （譯者 陳倩倩 編輯 高晴） 掃一掃，關(guān)注微博微信
