Adolescents are vulnerable to major public health stress events.Based on a socio-ecological per-spective,this study analyzes the influence of social class on adolescents'mental health during stress events.1 563 adolescents engaged in home online learning completed the Social Class Scale,Unpredictabili-ty Scale,Behavioral Inhibition System Scale,COVID-19 Risk Perception Scale,and 12-item General Health Questionnaire.Multiple mediation analysis revealed that childhood adversity,threat sensitivity,and risk perception acted as serial mediators between social class and mental health.Lower class adolescents experienced greater childhood adversity,which led to higher levels of threat sensitivity and increased risk perception during stress events,ultimately resulting in more mental health problems.This study identifies the significant pathways that elucidate the influence of social class on adolescents'mental health,which is of vital significance for formulating relevant policies and proposing intervention measures to improve the mental health of high-risk populations.
