Resumo: | We explore psychological symptomatology of college students in Madeira University, Portugal and examine socio-demographic variables associated with psychological health. We intend to answer the questions: Does gender differ in terms of symptomatology? Which psychological symptomatology is more common? Is there a relation between severity of symptomatology and loneliness? We administered the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised and UCLA Loneliness Scale to 300 students, aged 18 to 52. Women reported higher levels of symptomatology. We also noted a positive correlation between symptomatology and loneliness, which could mean that the more severe are the psychological symptoms, lonelier student’s feel. We aim to suggest interventions that best suit higher education purpose and students, promote their adjustment and well-being. |

Tenemos la intención de responder a las preguntas: ¿el género difiere en cuanto a la sintomatología? ¿Qué sintomatología psicológica es más común? ¿Existe una relación entre la severidad de la sintomatología y la soledad? Se administró el Symptom Checklist-90-Revisado y Escala de Soledad UCLA a 300 estudiantes, de entre 18 y 52. Las mujeres reportaron mayores niveles de sintomatología. También se observó una correlación positiva entre la sintomatología y la soledad, lo que podría significar que el más grave son los síntomas psicológicos, solitaria sensación del estudiante. Nuestro objetivo es proponer intervenciones que mejor se adapten a propósito de la educación superior y a los estudiantes y promover su adaptación y el bienestar.IMEDDigitUMaSoares, Maria Luísa P.Lucas, Carla ValeOliveira, Filipa IsabelRoque, Fátima LilianaCadima, Joana2023-12-13T11:33:57Z20122012-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.13/5425engSoares, M.
