Mental health issues in adolescents are an important public health concern because they can impair academic performance, social relationships, and long-term well-being. Schools occupy a strategic position in early detection as they can reach adolescents broadly, yet data on emotional and behavioral problems and their association with symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress at the school level remain limited. This study aims to analyze the relationship between emotional and behavioral problems and symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress among students at SMP Negeri 4 Ubud as baseline data for developing school-based mental health initiatives. The study utilized a cross-sectional analytical observational design with a total sampling technique for students participating in the screening under the SENYUM Program in 2026. Emotional and behavioral problems were assessed using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), while symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress were evaluated using the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale for Youth (DASS-Y). A total of 292 students aged 12–15 years were analyzed. Overall, 24.3% of students had total SDQ difficulties in the borderline or abnormal category, while 22.9% exhibited mild or more severe DASS-Y symptoms in at least one subscale. Total SDQ difficulties were strongly correlated with total DASS-Y (ρ=0.79; p<0.001). Emotional symptoms represented the SDQ domain with the strongest and most consistent relationship with depression, anxiety, and stress after multivariable adjustments. These findings demonstrate a significant link between emotional and behavioral difficulties and psychological distress symptoms among students. The SDQ and DASS-Y can be utilized complementarily in school-based mental health screenings, provided that screening outcomes are accompanied by appropriate follow-up and clinical evaluations as needed.
ABSTRAK
Masalah kesehatan mental pada remaja merupakan isu penting karena dapat memengaruhi fungsi akademik, hubungan sosial, dan kesejahteraan jangka panjang. Sekolah memiliki posisi strategis dalam deteksi dini karena dapat menjangkau remaja secara luas, tetapi data mengenai masalah emosional dan perilaku serta kaitannya dengan gejala depresi, ansietas, dan stres di tingkat sekolah masih terbatas. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis hubungan masalah emosional dan perilaku dengan gejala depresi, ansietas, dan stres pada siswa SMP Negeri 4 Ubud sebagai data dasar pengembangan kesehatan mental berbasis sekolah. Penelitian menggunakan desain observasional analitik potong lintang dengan teknik total sampling terhadap siswa yang mengikuti penapisan dalam Program SENYUM tahun 2026. Masalah emosional dan perilaku dinilai menggunakan Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), sedangkan gejala depresi, ansietas, dan stres dinilai menggunakan Depression Anxiety Stress Scale for Youth (DASS-Y). Sebanyak 292 siswa berusia 12–15 tahun dianalisis secara lengkap. Sebanyak 24,3% siswa memiliki total kesulitan SDQ pada kategori borderline atau abnormal, sedangkan 22,9% menunjukkan gejala DASS-Y derajat ringan atau lebih berat pada sedikitnya satu subskala. Total kesulitan SDQ berkorelasi kuat dengan total DASS-Y (ρ=0,79; p<0,001). Gejala emosional merupakan domain SDQ yang menunjukkan hubungan paling kuat dan konsisten dengan depresi, ansietas, dan stres setelah penyesuaian multivariabel. Temuan ini menunjukkan adanya keterkaitan yang bermakna antara masalah emosional dan perilaku dengan gejala distres psikologis pada siswa. Instrumen SDQ dan DASS-Y dapat digunakan secara saling melengkapi dalam penapisan kesehatan mental berbasis sekolah, dengan hasil penapisan tetap memerlukan tindak lanjut dan penilaian klinis komprehensif sesuai kebutuhan.
