Health behaviours among adolescents with depression
Adolescents with MDD exhibit unhealthy behaviours related to sleep, diet, physical activity, and screen time. Sleep showed the strongest association with depressive symptoms, both directly and indirectly via diet and screen time. Research examining potential causal mechanisms underlying these effects is needed to elucidate novel, accessible depression treatment targets.
