Abstract


Depresi merupakan kondisi umum yang sering kali tidak terdiagnosis di kalangan mahasiswa. Status WhatsApp di jejaring sosial di kalangan mahasiswa dapat menampilkan indikasi depresi yang mereka alami. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi pengungkapan status WhatsApp mahasiswa yang memenuhi kriteria DSM untuk gejala depresi atau episode depresi mayor (EDM). Status WhatsApp mahasiswa tahun kedua dan ketiga dipilih dan teks yang ditulis secara pribadi dalam "status pembaruan" dievaluasi. Kriteria DSM diterapkan pada pembaruan status selama satu tahun dari setiap status untuk menentukan prevalensi gejala depresi yang ditampilkan dan kriteria EDM. Analisis regresi binomial negatif digunakan untuk memodelkan hubungan antara pengungkapan depresi dan demografi atau karakteristik penggunaan WhatsApp di kalangan mahasiswa. Sebanyak 150 status dievaluasi, dengan pemilik status terdiri dari 43,5% perempuan dan usia rata-rata 20 tahun. Secara keseluruhan, 31,3% status menampilkan gejala depresi dan 2,5% memenuhi kriteria untuk EDM. Mahasiswa umumnya menunjukkan gejala yang konsisten dengan depresi melalui status WhatsApp. Oleh karena itu, WhatsApp dapat menjadi salah satu jalur inovatif untuk melawan stigma seputar kondisi kesehatan mental, atau untuk mengidentifikasi mahasiswa yang berisiko mengalami depresi.
