目的:预防性心理健康干预对青少年的治疗效果相对较小。影响较小的一个原因可能是,作为内在特征的一种功能,心理治疗的反应存在个体差异,这是优势敏感性概念中提出的一个概念。本研究调查了人格特质感觉加工敏感性是否影响了一种新的以学校为基础的抑郁预防干预措施的有效性。方法:采用两队列处理/对照设计,其中一个队列作为对照组(N=197),另一个队列作为处理组(N=166),检验感觉加工敏感性是否可以预测从治疗前到12个月随访的抑郁轨迹。结果:感觉加工敏感性是治疗反应的显著预测因子。该预防计划成功地降低了感觉处理敏感度得分较高的女孩的抑郁得分,但对相同测量得分较低的女孩则完全无效。结论:本研究首次提供了关于学校抑郁症预防干预治疗反应的人格特质感觉处理敏感度与优势敏感度的关系的经验证据。(C)2015爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
Objective: Treatment effects of preventative mental health interventions for adolescents tend to be relatively small. One reason for the small effects may be individual differences in the response to psychological treatment as a function of inherent characteristics, a notion proposed in the concept of Vantage Sensitivity. The current study investigated whether the personality trait Sensory-Processing Sensitivity moderated the efficacy of a new school-based intervention aimed at the prevention of depression.Method: Using a two-cohort treatment/control design with one cohort serving as the control group (N= 197) and a subsequent cohort as the treatment group (N= 166) it was tested whether Sensory-Processing Sensitivity predicted depression trajectories from pre-treatment up to a 12 months follow-up assessment in 11-year-old girls from an at-risk population in England.Results: Sensory-Processing Sensitivity emerged as a significant predictor of treatment response. The prevention program successfully reduced depression scores in girls scoring high on Sensory-Processing Sensitivity but was not effective at all in girls scoring low on the same measure.Conclusions: This study provides first empirical evidence for Vantage Sensitivity as a function of the personality trait Sensory-Processing Sensitivity regarding treatment response to a school-based depression prevention intervention.
