Association between perceived decline in family income due to COVID-19 and alcohol consumption among Korean adolescents
2022, Journal of Affective DisordersCitation Excerpt :In addition, each patient's unstable childrearing behaviors adversely affected adolescent development (Conger et al., 1993). Moreover, worry about family economic hardship is strongly associated to the adolescents' perceived health, though their own relative economic deprivation also plays a significant role (Hagquist, 1998). The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the lives of adolescents in various ways.
Mental health problems among economically disadvantaged adolescents in an increasingly unequal society: A Swedish study using repeated cross-sectional data from 1995 to 2011
2018, SSM - Population HealthCitation Excerpt :The consequences of having a disadvantaged position may thus influence adolescents’ mental health by negatively affecting their social-self (e.g., self-worth and self-esteem) (Mossakowski, 2015; Wilkinson & Pickett, 2009). Empirical evidence to support these claims is relatively well-established in the literature (e.g., Hagquist, 1998; Bremberg, 2011; Denny et al., 2016; Torikka et al., 2014; Östberg, Alfven, & Hjern, 2006). These studies cover various aspects of the subject matter in terms of, for example, the country under investigation, the various ways to measure adolescents’ economic disadvantage (e.g., objective measures of socioeconomic status/position or actual experiences of financial strains; parent-report or adolescent self-report), the outcome of interest (e.g., depression/anxiety, health complaints, and psychosomatic problems).
