Chunk #65 — 5. Discussion — 5.1. Prevalence and Levels of Stress, Depression, and Alcohol Use Disorders of Slovak Students in an International Comparison
The results of the correspondence analysis of the relations between the categories of analysed variables (gender-income categories, interval disorder categories) point to the fact that female students in both income categories and male students with lower incomes reported higher levels of perceived stress than male students with higher incomes. By comparing the relations between the gender-income characteristics and the AUDIT score, it was possible to positively assess the fact that a very weak link was found in ZONE 4. In the case of ZONE 3, a close link was found with male students with higher incomes. Both income categories of female students were concentrated around ZONE 1. These findings confirmed the fact outlined above that gender and income characteristics play an important role in the study of mental and behavioural disorders in university students.
