摘要
Mental disorders typically develop during adolescence, with young women being particularly at risk. Mental disorders during this period can negatively affect both current and future life prospects such as school completion. Migrants are at increased risk of developing mental disorders as a result of their experiences prior to, during and after migration. Additionally, they are less likely to complete upper-secondary school when compared to the majority population. Thus, being a young migrant woman with a mental disorder may have adverse consequences for school completion, which in turn can affect socioeconomic status later in life. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between mental disorders, defined as having used outpatient mental healthcare services (OPMH), and completion of upper-secondary school among young women living in Norway, using national registry data. Additionally, we examined differences in probability of school completion between Norwegian majority, migrants and migrant descendants between those who used and did not use OPMH. The sample consisted of women born between 1990 and 1993 (N = 122,777). We conducted hierarchical, multivariable logistic regression analysis. In unadjusted analysis, we found that young women who used OPMH services had lower odds of school completion than those who did not, even after adjustment for migrant background and parental education. However, by calculating predictive margins, we found that descendant women, who had used OPMH services, had significantly higher probability of completing upper-secondary education than Norwegian majority women who had used services. None of the four migrant groups differed significantly from majority women. Use of OPMH services, had most adverse effect on majority, migrants from Nordic and Western countries and descendants, when compared to non-users. Future interventions should aim to increase school completion among young women with mental disorders.
