High academic pressure at 15 linked to lasting depression and self-harm in young adults, UCL study finds.
A new study of over 4,700 young people in England links high academic pressure at age 15 to increased depression and self-harm that can persist into early adulthood.
Researchers from University College London found that each one-point rise in perceived academic pressure raised the risk of self-harm by 8%, with the strongest effects seen around age 16 during GCSE exams.
The findings, based on data collected from ages 16 to 24, suggest school-wide strategies—like social-emotional learning and fewer high-stakes exams—could help reduce youth mental health risks.
