- Abstract
This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of symptoms of dysphoria and depression, according to demographic, socioeconomic, cultural, behavioral habits and academic phase, among Nursing students. We surveyed 194 students of the School of Nursing of Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina; data were collected through a questionnaire and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Most were female (92.78%), unmarried (91.24%), mean age 22 years. The prevalence of symptoms of dysphoria and depression was 7.22% and 5.67% respectively. Mother's education, practice of leisure and religion were significantly associated with symptoms of dysphoria and depression (p <0.05), the mean score of IDB was 8.38 (SD 7.13). Screening for signs and symptoms of dysphoria and depression in students is important in planning and monitoring of psychological support services.
