  • Adolescents with elevated anxiety and emotional difficulties exhibit increasing eco-anxiety, with rate ratios indicating a consistent pattern.
  • Lower household income associates with higher eco-anxiety scores, emphasizing the role of socioeconomic factors in mental health outcomes.
  • Neighborhood characteristics show a lesser but significant influence, suggesting interventions may need a multilayered approach to reduce eco-anxiety.
