We assessed whether factors assumed to promote health and factors assumed to have adverse effects were associated with self-reported internalizing or somatic symptoms. Methods In a cross-sectional study 230 boys and 189 girls in grades 1-10 from five schools responded to the same set of questions. Proportional odds logistic regression was used to assess associations of school related factors with the prevalence of sadness anxiety stomach ache and headache. Results In multivariable analyses perceived loneliness showed strong and positive associations with sadness odds ratio 1.94 95 CI 1.42 to 2.64 anxiety odds ratio 1.78 95 CI 1.31 to 2.42 and headache odds ratio 1.47 95 CI 1.10 to 1.96 with consistently stronger associations for girls than boys. Among assumed health promoting factors receiving necessary help from teachers was associated with lower prevalence of stomach ache in girls odds ratio 0.51 95 CI 0.30 to 0.87 . Conclusions These findings suggest that perceived loneliness may be strongly related to both internalizing and somatic symptoms among school children and for girls the associations of loneliness appear to be particularly strong.
