过去的研究已确定父母抑郁症和原生家庭虐待是青少年抑郁症和反社会行为的先兆。护理经历也被认为是可能改善或加剧青少年精神病理学轨迹的一个因素。利用两个地理上不同但互补的纵向研究设计的独特属性，本研究探讨了母亲照顾者的参与作为促进青春期女孩抑郁症状和反社会行为相关的基于复原力的轨迹的因素的作用。第一个样本包括一组美国寄养青春期女孩（n = 100；平均年龄 = 11.50 岁），她们都有童年虐待史并被从亲生父母的家中带走。第二个样本包括一组患有抑郁症家族高风险的英国青春期女孩（n = 145；平均年龄 = 11.70 岁），所有女孩的亲生母亲都患有复发性抑郁症。研究分析考察了母亲的照顾对女孩抑郁和反社会行为轨迹的作用，同时控制了研究期间每个时间点同时发生的精神病理学水平。结果表明，控制反社会行为后，有家族抑郁风险的女孩的抑郁症状轨迹增加，但寄养女孩的抑郁症状轨迹减少。在控制抑郁症状的情况下，反社会行为轨迹也出现了类似的结果模式。母亲照顾者的参与与两个样本中的截距和斜率参数存在差异相关。结果讨论了确定家庭层面的促进因素，旨在减少高危青少年的负面发展轨迹。
Past research has identified parental depression and family-of-origin maltreatment as precursors to adolescent depression and antisocial behavior. Caregiving experiences have also been identified as a factor that may ameliorate or accentuate adolescent psychopathology trajectories. Using the unique attributes of two geographically diverse, yet complementary longitudinal research designs, the present study examined the role of maternal caregiver involvement as a factor that promotes resilience-based trajectories related to depressive symptom and antisocial behaviors among adolescent girls. The first sample comprises a group of US-based adolescent girls in foster care (n = 100; mean age = 11.50 years), all of whom have had a history of childhood maltreatment and removal from the home of their biological parent(s). The second sample comprises a group of UK-based adolescent girls at high familial risk for depression (n = 145; mean age = 11.70 years), with all girls having a biological mother who has experienced recurrent depression. Study analyses examined the role of maternal caregiving on girls’ trajectories of depression and antisocial behavior, while controlling for levels of co-occurring psychopathology at each time point across the study period. Results suggest increasing trajectories of depressive symptoms, controlling for antisocial behavior, for girls at familial risk for depression, but decreasing trajectories for girls in foster care. A similar pattern of results was noted for antisocial behavior trajectories, controlling for depressive symptoms. Maternal caregiver involvement was differentially related to intercept and slope parameters in both samples. Results are discussed with respect to the identification of family level promotive factors aimed at reducing negative developmental trajectories among high-risk youth.
