Abstract

Objectives: To determine the prevalence of depression and its related factors among students at Le Quy Don High School for the Gifted, Ninh Thuan province, in 2023. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 414 students at Le Quy Don High School for the Gifted, Ninh Thuan province, from March to June 2023. The data was collected by using a structured questionnaire with three parts: personal and academic characteristics, the PSQI sleep quality scale, and the CES-D depression risk assessment scale. Results: The prevalence of depression among students was 60.9%. A higher risk of depression was found in students who were female, in grade 11, felt peer pressure from friends, and had poor sleep quality. Engaging in physical activities and having good relationships with friends were factors that prevented students from the risk of depression. Conclusion: Students should balance study and sleep time to ensure sleep quality. The school should pay more attention, provide appropriate support to female students and 11th-grade students, and develop out-of-class programs to encourage students to participate in physical activities strengthen peer relationships, reducing academic competitive pressure, thereby helping to prevent the risk of depression in students.
