| description | The objectives were to estimate the frequency of mental disorders among Spanish university students, their association with role impairment and the use of treatment. Also, to identify risk and protective factors. The thesis is based on the UNIVERSAL project (2,118 first-year university students completed the baseline online survey and 1,253 completed at least 40% of the 12-month follow-up survey). The online measures had an adequate agreement with the MINI-International Neuropsychiatric Interview. The 12-month prevalence of any mental disorder was 35.7%. Twelve-month mental disorders were associated with role impairment (29.2%); only 12.6% of students with mental disorder received mental health treatment in the last year. At the 12-month follow-up, the first onset of major depressive episode and/or generalized anxiety disorder (MDE-GAD) was 13.3%; and persistence (among those with MDE-GAD at baseline) was 46.7%. Factors associated with MDE-GAD were prior suicidal ideation and lifetime symptoms of MDE and GAD |

També, identificar factors de risc i de protecció. Es basa en el projecte UNIVERSAL (2.118 universitaris de primer curs van completar l'enquesta en línia basal i 1.253, almenys el 40% de l'enquesta de seguiment 12-mesos). Els instruments en línia van tenir una concordança adequada amb la MINI-Entrevista Neuropsiquiàtrica Internacional. La prevalença 12-mesos de qualsevol trastorn mental va ser del 35,7%. Els trastorns mentals 12-mesos es van associar amb discapacitat (29,2%); només el 12,6% dels estudiants amb trastorn mental va rebre tractament de salut mental en l'últim any. Al seguiment, la incidència d’episodi depressiu major i/o trastorn d'ansietat generalitzada (EDM-TAG) va ser del 13,3%; i la persistència (entre aquells amb EDM-TAG basal), del 46,7%. Factors associats amb EDM-TAG van ser ideació suïcida prèvia i símptomes previs d'EDM i TAG.
