Analyzing Students' Mental Health

Analyzed a dataset from a Japanese international university to investigate the impact of studying abroad on students' mental health. The goal was to validate findings from a 2018 study regarding the risks of depression among international students.

Analyzing Students' Mental Health (SQL Project)

Project Overview

In this project, I analyzed a dataset from a Japanese international university to understand how the length of stay impacts the mental health of international students. The study focused on depression (PHQ-9), social connectedness (SCS), and acculturative stress (ASISS).This project was completed as part of a DataCamp certification.

Project Goal

To analyze whether the length of stay in a foreign country impacts the mental health of international students. The study focused on depression (PHQ-9), social connectedness (SCS), and acculturative stress (ASISS).

Key Findings

After filtering for international students (inter_dom = 'Inter') and grouping by the length of stay, the analysis revealed:1.) Depression Score (PHQ-9): The average depression score varies depending on how long the student has been in the country.
2.) Stress Levels (ASISS): Acculturative stress shows distinct patterns across different lengths of stay.

The Main Query

The following SQL query was used to aggregate the data:

Results

The analysis reveals how mental health metrics fluctuate for international students depending on their duration of stay. The SQL query returned the following aggregated data:

Conclusions

Confirmed that international students face higher risks of mental health difficulties linked to social connectedness.

Crucial Insight

Upon analyzing the "stay", I identified a sample size issue with durations exceeding 5 years. I concluded that only the 1-4 year range provides statistically significant data, as the low sample count for other durations would distort the correlation analysis regarding depression scores.
