Introduction

Anxiety and depression is becoming an increas-

ingly important public health issue. The adolescents’ population

is among affected seriously.

Objectives

The objectives of the study was to investigate the

level of anxiety, depression and self-esteemamong adolescents and

explore links between.

Methodology

Participants were 99 adolescents randomly

selected in school, aged between 12 to 19 years (M= 14.88;

SD = 2.09); in terms of gender composition, there were girls

41.1% and boys 58.9%. The measures used included the Alba-

nian versions of depression self-rating scale for children, the

revised children’s manifest anxiety scale, and the rosenberg

self-esteem scale. All data has been analysed by SPSS 21 and Excel

2007.

Results

Results showed that clinical significant levels reported

10.3% of participants for anxiety and 22.4% for depression. With

low self-esteem scored 16.3% of participants. Self-esteem is signifi-

cantly negatively correlated onlywith depression (

r

= -.433,

P <

.00).

Mann-Whitney Test didn’t found significant differences in anxiety

based on self-esteem levels. Mann-Whitney Test found signifi-

cant differences in depression levels based on levels of self-esteem

(Md

low self-esteem

= 15;

n

= 16; Md

normal self-esteem

= 10;

n

= 81) as ado-

lescents with low self-esteem had significantly higher depression

as compared to adolescents with normal self-esteem (

z

= -2.876,

P <

.004).

Conclusions

Findings suggested that self-esteem and depression

links are present but not links self-esteem and anxiety. It is impor-

tant to investigate these relationships in future research aimed

identification/interventions programs.

During 1.9.2015–31.8.2016, there were 1126 patients

diagnosed in the age group younger than 29 years, while number

of diagnoses was 90 (see

Malingering and medicalization in

Israeli higher education: A critical

inquiry of students feigning learning

disorders

O. Katchergin

Oranim academic college, sociology and anthropology, Kiryat-Tivon,

Israel

This lecture stimulates new thinking about learning-disorders. Pre-

vious research in Israel regarding students with learning-disorders

didnot analyze the social processes throughwhich students acquire

the disability label. Therefore, the scenario of some students seek-

ing the learning-disorder label in order to gain academic advantage

has not been discussed in the professional literature within this

context. The lecture is based on forty in-depth interviews con-

ducted with self-testified malingering students who, nonetheless,

were diagnosed as learning-disordered. Using sociological and nar-

ratological frameworks, the lecture discusses the strategies used by

the students prior to, and during, their formal diagnoses, in order
