本研究建立在过去的研究基础上,该研究发现了一个概念模型的支持,在该模型中,贫困通过经济压力和受损的养育方式与青少年心理症状相关。本研究以城市非裔美国母亲及其青春期子女为样本,检验了这一模型。此外,还检验了另一种假设:接触社区暴力会调节城市青年的贫困与心理症状之间的关系。对于以下模型的支持有限:在该模型中,贫困与通过暴露于社区暴力而产生的内化症状以及通过经济压力和不一致的纪律而与外化症状相关联。概述了未来研究的解释、局限性和方向。 (c) 2004 年青少年服务专业人员协会。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
The present study builds on past research that has found support for a conceptual model in which poverty is linked with adolescent psychological symptoms through economic stressors and impaired parenting. The present study examined this model in a sample of urban African American mothers and their adolescent children. In addition, an alternative hypothesis was examined: that exposure to community violence mediates the relation between poverty and psychological symptoms in urban youth. Limited support was found for a model in which poverty is linked with internalizing symptoms through exposure to community violence and with externalizing symptoms through economic stressors and inconsistent discipline. Interpretations, limitations, and directions for future research are outlined. (c) 2004 The Association for Professionals in Services for Adolescents. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
