Alongside effects on cardiovascular and respiratory health, there is emerging evidence that exposure to air pollutants (both indoors and outdoors) may lead to neurocognitive disorders and affect mental health (directly and indirectly) through a range of potential causal pathways (see Figs 1 and 2). 1,31–35 Observational evidence has ...
We examined the association of air and noise pollution exposure from pregnancy to 12 years of age with mental health problems from ages 13 to 24 years. Based on previous evidence, we focused on psychotic experiences (eg, subclinical hallucinations and delusions), depression, and anxiety.

Jun 10, 2024 · There is now increasing evidence that environmental conditions, and in particular poor air quality, may be associated with mental health and wellbeing. This cross-sectional analysis uses data on mental health and wellbeing from The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (TILDA), a nationally representative survey of the population aged 50+ in Ireland.
Current research suggests that high air pollution levels have long-term mental health effects, such as reduced mental capacity and increased cognitive decline, leading to increased stress, anxiety, and depression.
