Depression, anxiety and post traumatic stress disorder and their correlates among adults in central Vietnam

Do, Thi Hanh Trang (2019) Depression, anxiety and post traumatic stress disorder and their correlates among adults in central Vietnam. PhD thesis, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

This thesis examines the prevalence of depression, anxiety and PTSD symptoms and their correlates among a random sample of adults in Central Vietnam. It also investigates the impact of trauma on mental health. The study contributes to knowledge about the burden of mental health problems and their determinants in Vietnam. It adds to the international evidence about lifetime trauma burden and its effect on mental health in Asian countries. The findings indicate a pressing need for changes to the health system in Vietnam to enhance prevention programs and access to mental health care for common mental disorders, especially trauma-sensitive services.
