A new study conducted by the Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences (IMHANS) has shown widespread academic stress prevalent among students in occupied Jammu and Kashmir, with health experts advising parents and guardians to closely monitor the children.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, the study shows that at least 60-65 percent of school-going adolescents are suffering from academic-related stress in the occupied territory.<\/p>\n

The study, titled \u201cPrevalence of psychiatric morbidity among school-going adolescents in the age group of 13\u201319 years,\u201d asserts that there is a very high prevalence of psychiatric morbidity (anxiety combined with depression) of any kind among adolescents in Kashmir, many of which are unidentified and thus untreated.<\/p>\n

The study found depression as the most common psychiatric illness among adolescents with a higher prevalence in males, while anxiety disorders are more common among females.<\/p>\n

The study was carried out on 16 schools in the twin districts of Srinagar and Ganderbal. \u201cStress plays an essential role in the development of various illnesses. Academic stress, stresses from personal life and environment, as well as the ones arising from conflict may be important,\u201d the study says.<\/p>\n

Dr Ubaid Rasool, one of the authors of the study, told the media that they wanted to carry out the study in rural and urban areas and thus chose Srinagar and Ganderbal for the purpose.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven though there were similar disorders in Srinagar and Ganderbal, the academic stress is more predominant in Ganderbal district which is a rural area,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The reason, he said, is that the kids in urban areas go for more outdoor activities than children from rural areas.<\/p>\n

The results of the study highlight a worrying pattern of academic stress affecting students of classes 9 to12, revealing a substantial portion experiencing depression, anxiety, and various other mental health challenges.\u2014KMS<\/p>\n
