Prevalensi, durasi, dan risiko kambuhnya gangguan mental yang tinggi membebani sistem pelayanan kesehatan dan sosial, menurunkan produktivitas serta mengakibatkan peningkatan Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyelidiki faktor yang berhubungan dengan distres psikologis di masyarakat. Penelitian cross sectional sebanyak 220 sampel diambil dari total populasi orang dewasa dari sebuah desa komunitas nelayan di Banda Aceh dengan cara convenience sampling. Kessler psychological distress scale (K6) digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Responden berusia 20-44 tahun (45,8%), perempuan (79,7%), pendidikan rendah (78,0%), berstatus menikah (74,6%) dan mengalami somatic symptom disorder tinggi (33,9%) cenderung mengalami distres psikologis. Terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara usia (x2=6.6, p=0.036), jenis kelamin (x2=5.5, p=0.018), status pendidikan (x2=14, p=0.001), status pernikahan (x2=10.2, p=0.006) dan somatic symptom disorder (x2=11.4, p=0.022) terhadap distres psikologis. Pendidikan menjadi salah satu faktor pendukung peningkatan distres psikologis di masyarakat. Pengaruh pernikahan dengan distres psikologis di masyarakat perlu dievaluasi kembali terkait dukungan keluarga maupun strategi koping keluarga dalam penyelesaian konflik keluarga.

The high prevalence, duration and risk of recurrence of mental disorders burden health and social care systems, reduce productivity and increased Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYs). This study investigated factors associated with psychological distress (PD) in the community. The cross-sectional study with 220 samples was taken from the total adult population of a fishing community village in Banda Aceh by convenience sampling. The Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K6) instrument was used in this study. Respondents aged 20-44 years (45.8%), female (79.7%), low education (78.0%), married (74.6%), and experiencing high somatic symptom disorder (33.9%) tend to experience PD. There was a significant relationship between age (x2=6.6, p=0.036), gender (x2=5.5, p=0.018), educational status (x2=14, p=0.001), marital status (x2=10.2, p=0.006), and somatic symptom disease (x2=11.4, p=0.022) on PD. Education is a triggering factor for PD. The influence of marriage on psychological distress in the community needs to be re evaluated regarding family support and coping strategies in resolving family conflicts.
