Abstract

This study analyzes the relationship between mental health and academic stress among students through a systematic literature synthesis and meta-analysis. The meta-analysis of 127 studies involving a total of 89,632 participants reveals a strong positive correlation between academic stress and indicators of mental health, including depression (r = 0.48), anxiety (r = 0.45), and general psychological stress (r = 0.52). Moderator analysis indicates variation in score differences based on gender, geographic region, and time. The identified mediating mechanisms include maladaptive coping strategies, poor sleep quality, and low perceived social support. Furthermore, longitudinal studies demonstrate a lagged effect of academic stress on symptoms of depression and anxiety. On the other hand, meta-analysis of interventions shows moderate effectiveness in reducing academic stress and improving mental health. These findings emphasize the importance of a holistic approach to addressing academic stress and student mental health, consistent with previous theoretical models, such as the diathesis-stress theory and conservation of resources theory. Lastly, the presentation of comprehensive synthesis results and robust quantitative analysis regarding the relationship between academic stress and student mental health identifies previously unexplored moderator and mediator factors. Additionally, the longitudinal perspective on the dynamics of the relationship between these two variables represents another novelty. The results of this study are expected to have implications for educational institutions, policymakers, and mental health practitioners.

Abstract

This study analyzes the impact of social support on the mental health of individuals with disabilities in Indonesia, involving 250 participants aged 18 to 65 years. Data were collected using the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21). Multiple regression analysis results indicate that social support significantly contributes to improved mental health (β = -0.42, p < .001 for depression; β = -0.36, p < .001 for anxiety; β = -0.39, p < .001 for stress). Family support emerged as the strongest predictor, showing a negative correlation with depression (r = -0.51, p < .001) and anxiety (r = -0.43, p < .001). These findings underscore the critical importance of social support for the mental health of individuals with disabilities. Additionally, the moderation analysis by age indicates that social support has a more substantial impact on older individuals with disabilities (β = -0.14, p < .05). These findings align with the research by Tough et al. (2017) and Santini et al. (2015), emphasizing the significance of various forms of social support for individuals with disabilities in Indonesia. The study also highlights the understanding of the Indonesian cultural context, which remains discriminatory toward individuals with disabilities, and addresses the phenomenon of neglect regarding the mental health care of this population, which represents 6.7% of the national population. Therefore, the results of this study are expected to fill the existing literature gap by providing empirical evidence for the necessity of social support interventions that can significantly enhance the mental health of individuals with disabilities.
