Journal Title: Revista Eugenio Espejo - Year 2023, Vol 17, Issue 2
Abstract
This research aimed to analyze the depression, anxiety, stress, and family functionality in adolescents of an Educational Unit in Guayaquil, province of Guayas, Ecuador, in February 2022, in which 218 students participated. The study was classified as non-experimental, explanatory approach, and cross-sectional. The data was obtained from the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS-21) and the Family Functioning Questionnaire FF-SIL, previously applied by members of the Student Counse-ling Department. The results showed that 17.9% expressed moderate stress, 17.9% moderate depression, and 30.3% extremely severe anxiety. The correlation between family functionality and depression, anxiety, and stress dimensions was statistically significant (p = 0.000), inversely proportional, and moderate intensity. In addition, it was established that the status of the first one was predisposed to that one of the three dimensions.
