“…Females developed more anxious and depressive symptoms after vaccination than males, and the employed developed more anxiety and depressive symptoms than their unemployed counterparts. This finding is consistent with that before the pandemic [ 7 , 8 , 9 ]. However, few studies have explored the association between demographics and mental distress after vaccination.…”

“…Previous studies indicated that mental health is associated with socio-demographic factors such as gender, education level, and employment status [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 ]. For instance, females were reported to relate to a higher level of anxiety and depression than males [ 7 , 8 , 9 ]. Unemployment status was also reported to correlate to worse mental health [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 ].…”

The COVID-19 vaccine has been administered to over 200 countries and regions. With the unprecedented vaccination scale and speed, vaccination correlated mental health issues should be paid precise attention to. This study aims to assess the association between socio-demographic factors and mental health following vaccination and to analyze the mediation effect of vaccine hesitancy. This study recruited 2112 individuals who took two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine in Shanghai. Structural equation modeling was performed to assess factors associated with anxiety and depression of the vaccinated individuals and the underlying mechanism. The results yielded that vaccine hesitancy partially mediated/suppressed the effect from gender and employment status to anxiety/depression and fully mediated the effects from education to anxiety/depression. This study advanced the understanding of mental health disparity among different socio-demographic groups after vaccination and the impact of vaccine hesitancy on the vaccinated population’s mental health. The finding offered insights into the possible mental vulnerability of people holding a hesitant attitude before vaccination and suggested that vaccine hesitancy played a crucial role in people’s mental health after vaccination. Health promotion programs can target vaccine hesitancy to prevent unfavorable mental health consequences among specific populations.

“…20,21 Approximately 750,000 prostate cancer survivors in the United States are depressed. 25 The authors of the conceptual model suggested that sociodemographic characteristics (eg, race, unemployment, and low income), [26][27][28][29][30][31][32] lifestyle factors (eg, a lack of exercise), 33,34 acute and chronic burdens (eg, treatment decisional regret), and interpersonal situations affect a person's susceptibility to stress vulnerabilities that often precede depression. The goal of this study was to describe the prevalence and predictors of probable depression in prostate cancer survivors (we use the Cancer October 1, 2019 word probable because of our identifying strategy; more details are given later).…”

“…22 The analytic approach was informed by Kinser and Lyon's conceptual model for individual stress vulnerability, depression, and health outcomes. 25 The authors of the conceptual model suggested that sociodemographic characteristics (eg, race, unemployment, and low income), [26][27][28][29][30][31][32] lifestyle factors (eg, a lack of exercise), 33,34 acute and chronic burdens (eg, treatment decisional regret), and interpersonal situations affect a person's susceptibility to stress vulnerabilities that often precede depression. 25 After reviewing evidence on stress vulnerabilities in other patient populations, we hypothesized that sociodemographic characteristics such as age, African American race, low education, rural residence, being unmarried, unemployment, and low income were positively associated with probable depression.…”

Background The early diagnosis and treatment of depression are cancer care priorities. These priorities are critical for prostate cancer survivors because men rarely seek mental health care. However, little is known about the epidemiology of depression in this patient population. The goal of this study was to describe the prevalence and predictors of probable depression in prostate cancer survivors. Methods The data were from a population‐based cohort of North Carolinian prostate cancer survivors who were enrolled from 2004 to 2007 in the North Carolina–Louisiana Prostate Cancer Project (n = 1031) and were prospectively followed annually from 2008 to 2011 in the Health Care Access and Prostate Cancer Treatment in North Carolina study (n = 805). Generalized estimating equations were used to evaluate an indicator of probable depression (Short Form 12 mental composite score ≤48.9; measured at enrollment and during the annual follow‐up) as a function of individual‐level characteristics within the longitudinal data set. Results The prevalence of probable depression fell from 38% in the year of the cancer diagnosis to 20% 6 to 7 years later. Risk factors for probable depression throughout the study were African American race, unemployment, low annual income, younger age, recency of cancer diagnosis, past depression, comorbidities, treatment decisional regret, and nonadherence to exercise recommendations. Conclusions Depression is a major challenge for prostate cancer survivors, particularly in the first 5 years after the cancer diagnosis. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first study to demonstrate an association between treatment decisional regret and probable depression.

“…In addition to type of job, age, sex, level of education and job status are known occupational risk factors for mental health problems [13]. In a systematic review of epidemiological research, type of job, age, sex, level of education and job status were associated with both depressive state and anxiety [14]. Thus, type of job and age, sex, level of education and job status may be interrelated in their effect on mental health and all factors should be considered simultaneously.…”

Anxiety and depression may cause employees increasingly poor performance. This study aimed to investigate the effects of occupation on anxiety and depression. A total of 250 workers in a Psychiatric Hospital in Kerman participated and completed the BDI-II and BAI to determine their levels of anxiety and depression. All subjects were employed at one of two clinical and Non-clinical sections. Of all participants, 200 were employed in clinical jobs and 50 in Non-clinical employment. Results indicated that the percentage of anxiety and depression and its severity in employees with clinical and Non-clinical occupation is significantly different. This difference in depression (P<0.01) is more evident than anxiety (P<0.05). According to our findings, the level of anxiety (P<0.05) and
