Abstract
El presente trabajo de investigación tuvo por objetivo determinar el nivel
de depresión en adolescentes usuarios de un establecimiento de salud,
Distrito de Belén, 2022. La metodología estuvo enmarcada en un tipo de
investigación descriptiva simple, diseño no experimental y transversal, la
población estuvo conformada por 30 adolescentes usuarios del Centro de
Salud IPRESS I-3 Cardozo, siendo la muestra representativa de 15
adolescentes quienes cumplieron criterios de inclusión y exclusión, la
técnica empleada fue la psicométrica y el instrumento fue la Escala de
Autovaloración de la Depresión (EAD) de William Zung y Zung. Los datos
fueron procesados y analizados mediante el software estadístico
Statistical Package for Social Sciences - SPSS v22. Los resultados
fueron: un 60,0% obtuvieron niveles de depresión de leve a moderada, lo
que nos indicaría que los adolescentes algunas veces se sienten tristes y
decaídos, que duermen tarde porque les cuesta conciliar el sueño, que
durante el día suelen mantenerse intranquilos como si algo les faltara,
pero sin saber las razones de su inquietud, por otro lado, solo un 13,3%
obtuvo nivel de depresión de moderada a intensa, indicando que los
adolescentes experimentan sentimientos de minusvalía, lo que les
generaría ganas de llorar y muchas veces encontrándose irritables sin
deseos de realizar sus actividades diarias, y solo un 26,7% de los
adolescentes no presenta depresión.
