Almost a third of those questioned in the YLT survey had experienced serious personal, emotional or mental health problems.
在一项名为“青少年生活与境况”的调查中，几乎三分之一的调查对象曾经历严重的个人、情感或心理问题。
One in ten 16-year-olds in Northern Ireland who took part in a new study have said they have considered self-harming or taking an overdose.
The annual Young Life and Times (YLT) survey was carried out by Queen's and the University of Ulster.
It also revealed that almost a third of those questioned had experienced serious personal, emotional or mental health problems.
Researchers interviewed 1,367 16-year-olds.
Dr Dirk Schubotz from the School of Sociology, Social Policy and Social Work at Queen's University and YLT director, said: "These findings from the YLT survey show that despite the investment in mental health services in Northern Ireland, compared to five years ago, there has been virtually no change with regard to young people's experiences of stress and mental health problems.
