Article Abstract
Objective: To understand the relationship between academic delay and depression in myopic junior high school students.
Methods: Medical visual acuity examination(including far-vision examination and dioptometry) and questionnaire survey(including Middle School students' Academic Procrastination Questionnaire and Childhood Depression Scale) were conducted among 1752 junior middle school students in a district of Chongqing in June 2022. Difference analysis, correlation analysis and binary Logistic regression analysis were performed on the data obtained from myopic students.
Results: 1116(63.69%) students with myopia were detected, 405 students with academic delay and 1289 students with depression. Among them, 266(65.68%) and 835(64.78%) were nearsighted due to academic procrastination and depression. There were significant differences in academic procrastination and depression between myopic and non-myopic students(P<0.01). Moreover, myopic junior high school students have a greater risk of academic procrastination and depression(OR=4.94, 95%CI 3.04-8.01).
Conclusion: Myopic junior high school students are more likely to have academic delay and depression.
