本研究探讨的关系,浪漫和柏拉图式的参与与男孩,以及青春期的状态,身体形象和抑郁症状之间的种族不同的样本六年级的女孩。参与者是157名青春期少女(10-13岁),她们完成了旨在评估女孩与男孩的参与程度、青春期状态和心理适应的自我报告措施。女孩的浪漫参与程度与较高的抑郁评分呈正相关。更先进的青春期状态与较低的身体形象满意度和较高的抑郁评分。柏拉图式的参与和青春期的状态之间出现了显着的相互作用。那些性成熟度较低但也报告与男孩有更多柏拉图式关系的女孩报告了更高的身体形象满意度。这些研究结果表明,与男孩的参与类型(浪漫与柏拉图式)和女孩的青春期状态影响心理调整。
This study explored the relationship of both romantic and platonic involvement with boys, as well as pubertal status, to body image and depression symptoms among an ethnically diverse sample of sixth-grade girls. Participants were 157 early adolescent girls (ages 10-13) who completed self-report measures designed to assess girls' level of involvement with boys, pubertal status, and psychological adjustment. Girls' degree of romantic involvement was positively associated with higher depression scores. More advanced pubertal status was associated with both lower body image satisfaction and higher depression scores. A significant interaction between platonic involvement and pubertal status emerged. Girls who were less sexually mature but who also reported more platonic involvement with boys reported greater body image satisfaction. These findings suggest that the type of involvement with boys (romantic vs. platonic) and a girl's pubertal status influence psychological adjustment.
