Abstract: Purpose An inverse relationship between mental health and academic achievement is a well-known phenomenon in the scientific literature. However, how and when this association develops is not fully understood and there is a lack of longitudinal, population-based studies on young children. Early intervention is important if associations are to be found already during childhood. The aim of the present study was to investigate the development of the association between mental health and academic performance during… Show more

“…Gangguan psikologis yang dialami mahasiswa dapat berdampak pada berbagai aspek dalam kehidupan perkuliahan. Pada level individu, gangguan psikologis dapat mempengaruhi kondisi fisik, emosional, kemampuan berpikir, dan keberfungsiannya dalam lingkungan sosial (Agnafors et al, 2020;VanderLind, 2017). Misalnya, depresi dapat membuat seorang mahasiswa mengalami perubahan afektif yang mengganggu aktivitas sehari-hari, kehilangan minat untuk melakukan aktivitas sehari-hari termasuk aktivitas belajar, kemampuan memusatkan perhatian menjadi terganggu, kemampuan mengingat terganggu, sulit mengambil keputusan, kehilangan motivasi, merasa tidak berharga, menjauhkan diri dari lingkungan sosial, dan pada beberapa kasus melakukan percobaan bunuh diri (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).…”

“…The negative association between math test scores and total difficulties scores in our sample may indicate that academic stress is one factor causing poorer mental outcomes for low-performing students [ 83 ]. Although we cannot determine causality, it is possible that it is a bidirectional relationship [ 84 ]. Additionally, our finding that having parents with a higher educational level is a protective factor for mental health is supported by prior research [ 57 ], as parent educational attainment is associated with higher-quality parent-child interactions [ 85 ] and a more supportive home environment, which are predictive of optimal child mental health [ 86 ].…”

“…Academic performance during adolescence did not increase the risk for mental health at age 20 probably because of a considerable drop-out rate and long-time span between variables. Despite this, relationship between mental health and academic achievement motivates awareness to provide attention to education [3]. In addition, there is an increased need of residential mobility for better education or job opportunities.…”
