This study examines changes in occupational performance as observed in posts by university students on a social network. Depression is prevalent in Brazil, particularly among students, impacting academic and daily functioning. Using CrowdTangle, anonymous Facebook posts were analyzed following American Occupational Therapy Association guidelines. 301 posts revealed occupational changes across seven areas defined by the association. Depressive symptoms hinder academic performance, exacerbating symptoms. Academic stress, loneliness, stigma, loss of leisure interest, and socioeconomic factors contribute to distress. Social engagement and support benefit mental health, while time constraints detrimentally affect academics, especially disadvantaged students. The study underscores the link between occupational changes, academic decline, and depression, proposing six relevant subcategories within the Education domain
Disadvantaged · Environmental health · Loneliness · Mental health · Occupational stress · Political science · Psychiatry · Social support · Socioeconomic status · Clinical Psychology · Impact of Technology on Adolescents · Medicine · Occupational Health and Burnout · Psychology · Social Psychology · Technostress in Professional Settings · Gerontology
