Abstract

Ovim diplomskim radom istraživala se uloga internaliziranih problema u objašnjenju pozitivnog mentalnog zdravlja kod adolescenata na području Grada Kutine, odnosno kod učenika završnih razreda Srednje škole Tina Ujevića i Tehničke škole u Kutini. Uz to, istraživala se i pojavnost internaliziranih problema, pozitivnog mentalnog zdravlja te mentalno-zdravstvena pismenost ispitanika. U prikupljanju podataka korišteni su standardizirani instrumenti - za pojavnost internaliziranih problema u korišten je DASS-21, a za pojavnost pozitivnog mentalnog zdravlja korišten je Warwick-Edinburg Mental Wellbeing Scale (WEMWBS). U svrhu ispitivanja mentalno-zdravstvene pismenosti kreiran je upitnik isključivo za potrebe ovog istraživanja. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo ukupno 187 učenika, odnosno 92 učenika Srednje škole Tina Ujevića u Kutini (49,20%) te 95 (50,80%) učenika Tehničke škole u Kutini. Rezultati su pokazali kako učenici iskazuju umjerene i ozbiljne simptome anksioznosti i depresivnosti te nisku razinu simptoma stresa. Što se tiče pojavnosti pozitivnog mentalnog zdravlja, a u odnosu na prosječne rezultate za grupu ispitanika od 16 do 24 godina, učenici su ostvarili ukupni rezultat prema kojem se nalaze u prosjeku za navedenu dob. Istraživanje je ukazalo i na značajnu povezanost internaliziranih problema adolescenata i njihovog pozitivnog mentalnog zdravlja, na način da adolescenti koji iskazuju više simptoma depresivnosti, anksioznosti i stresa imaju nižu razinu pozitivnog mentalnog zdravlja.

The purpose of the study was to examine the role of internalized problems in the level of positive mental health in adolescents from Kutina, as well as to examine the representation of internalized problems, positive mental health and the mental health literacy of the adolescents. In the data collection, standardized instruments were used - DASS-21 was used for examing the incidence of internalized problems, and the Warwick-Edinburg Mental Wellbeing Scale (WEMWBS) was used to examine the incidence of positive mental health. For the purpose of examining mental health literacy, a questionnaire was created epecially for the purpose of this research. A total of 187 students, or 92 students from Tin Ujevic High School in Kutina (49.20%) and 95 students from Tehnicka skola participated in the study. The results showed that students showed moderate and severe symptoms of anxiety and depression and low levels of stress symptoms. The results of the incidence of the positive mental health, compared to the average scores for the adolescents between 16-24 years, showed that students achieved an overall average score for their age group. The study also pointed out a significant correlation between between internalized problems of adolescents and their positive mental health, where greater presence of the symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress has resulted in the occurence of a lower levels of positive mental health.
