Mental health in young people. A descriptive study.

Abstract:

:The aim of this study is the investigation of psychological discomforts in workers considered to be exposed to mental health risks. The subjects chosen were all young males, aged between twenty and twenty-nine, resident in the same geographical area for at least ten years and still living with their original family. Through a random process of selection four groups were sampled: metalworkers exposed to mental health occupational risks, metalworkers not exposed to mental health occupational risks, full-time students, and persons unemployed or seeking their first job. The subjects from each group completed the questionnaire to determine the index of psychological discomforts (IDP). Significantly higher frequencies and averages were found in the group of metalworkers exposed to mental health risks, while no statistically significant results were noted in the other groups, including the group of unemployed.
