Abstract(s)
The data on the mental health of young people, in the current scientific
evidence, point to the need for a constant updating of perspectives in
relation to the contexts in which it is inserted, aiming at a more targeted
intervention and its empowerment. In this context, it was described in the
study: "Consumption of psychoactive substances in university students...
What reality?" as one of the objectives- Identify the level of psychological
health (depression, anxiety, and stress) of students at the Instituto
Politécnico de Bragança. A quantitative, descriptive, correlational, and
cross-sectional study was carried out. A (non-probabilistic) sample of 392
students was used. The assessment of the students' psychological health was
carried out using the Anxiety, Depression, and Stress Scale (EADS21) by
Lovibond and Lovibond, adapted by Pais Ribeiro in 2004. SPSS was used
to process the data using descriptive statistics and inferential with a
significance level of 95%. As a result, we have that: about 25% of students
show above-normal levels of intensity in the depression and stress
dimensions, reaching almost one-third in the anxiety dimension. The
correlations between the EADS21 dimensions were moderate to strong.
