Survey for university students
Questions are the same as those asked of middle school students.
①Do you feel stressed in school?
About 60% of the respondents answered that they sometimes feel it, while about 35% answered that they do not feel it very often. Women were 13% more likely to say they sometimes feel it, while men were more likely to say they often feel it and never feel it.
②Comparing pre-Corona and now, have you felt any change in stress in your daily life?
For this question, the order of most frequent responses was the same for men and women. However, the percentage of women who said they no longer felt stressed was higher. Overall, men are considered to be more stressed in Corona, while women are considered to be about half as stressed.
➂Do you have your own way of relieving stress?
This question showed little difference between men and women. Both were above 85%, indicating that college students have more stress-relieving methods than those of junior high school students.
➃To those who answered "yes" to ➂, how exactly do you relieve stress?
This question was written, and we received many responses.
Most of the respondents answered "listening to music" and "exercising," and like the junior high school students, most of them relieve themselves through their own hobbies.
Among them, there are also some unique adult solutions, such as saunas and drinking with others,
which may explain why the percentage of "yes" responses was lower among junior high school students for the ➂ question.
⑤Please select all of the following diseases of which you know the names.
・Dissociative disorder ・Obsessive-compulsive disorder ・Bipolar disorder
・Adjustment disorder ・Schizophrenia disorder
・Personality disorder
・PTSD ・Don't know all of them
This is the result.
No respondents said they "didn't know about all of them," and nearly all knew about adjustment disorders. Compared to middle school students, the overall percentage of respondents who knew about them was also higher. Only dissociative disorders and personality disorders had fewer than half the number of respondents who knew about them.
⑥Please select all of the following treatment methods you know the names of.
・Drug therapy ・Modified electroconvulsive therapy
・Psychosocial treatment ・Autonomia training methods ・Don't know all of them
This is the result.
Many people knew about drug therapy, but other treatments were less well known.
⑦Do you know of any places where I can discuss my concerns about mental illness?
To this question, 57% of the total respondents answered that they didn't know of the program, but there was a gender gap, with about 70% of males and 47% of females. Even among junior high school students, there was a tendency for more males to know about it.
