Resumo: | This was a cross-sectional school-based study of 883 fourth-grade elementary schoolchildren at private (5), municipal (18), and State (11) schools in a city in Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. The objective was to identify the prevalence of childhood stress and its associated factors. The assessment used the Lipp & Lucarelli Childhood Stress Scale (2005) and a parental questionnaire. The results showed 18.2% stress prevalence in the schoolchildren. Factors associated with stress according to bivariate analysis were: gender (female), age (> 10 years), type of school (public), parents' marital status (not married), family relationship (fair/bad), social interaction (fair/bad), child's autonomous activities (lack of), and parents schooling' (elementary). After Cox regression, gender and social interaction remained in the final model as the factors associated with stress, demonstrating that girls and children with fair or bad social interaction had an increased likelihood of stress. The results point to the importance of early detection of childhood stress and the need for preventive measures to relieve the suffering caused by stress in so many children. |

O objetivo foi identificar prevalência e fatores associados ao estresse infantil. Os instrumentos utilizados foram: Escala de Estresse Infantil e questionário dirigido aos pais. Os resultados mostraram prevalência de estresse em 18,2% dos escolares. Os fatores associados ao desfecho na análise bivariada foram: sexo (feminino), idade (mais de dez anos), tipo de escola (pública), situação conjugal dos pais (não casados), relacionamento familiar (regular/ruim), convívio social (regular/ruim), atividades de autonomia (não possui) e escolaridade da mãe e do pai (1º grau). Na regressão de Cox, permaneceram, no modelo final associados ao estresse, sexo e convívio social, mostrando que meninas e crianças com convívio social regular/ruim possuem maior probabilidade de apresentar estresse. Esses resultados apontam para a importância da detecção precoce do estresse infantil e de ações preventivas a fim de aliviar o sofrimento causado pelo estresse em muitas crianças.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2008-05-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/3833Reports in Public Health; Vol. 24 No. 5 (2008): MayCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 24 n. 5 (2008): Maio1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/3833/7777https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/3833/7778Sbaraini, Cláudia RosiSchermann, Lígia Brauninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:27:50Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/3833Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:04:24.138418Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true |
