感觉与社区中的人和机构有联系的青少年可能会免受生活中其他风险因素的影响。因此，建议增加连通性作为预防策略。在这项研究中，我们调查了从城市医疗急救部门招募的 224 名青少年（12 至 15 岁）的连通性，他们因欺凌行为或受害而面临较高的风险，或者社会连通性较低。回归分析检查了与调整相关的多个连通领域（家庭、学校、同伴、社区）。感觉与父母联系更紧密的青少年的抑郁症状、自杀意念、非自杀性自残和行为问题水平较低，自尊心较高，对空闲时间的利用也更加适应性。感觉与学校联系更紧密的青少年的抑郁症状、自杀意念、社交焦虑和性活动水平较低，自尊水平较高，对空闲时间的利用更具适应性。在这个独特的样本中，社区联系与较少的社交焦虑有关，但与更多的性活动有关，而同伴联系与青少年适应无关。研究结果表明，家庭和学校的联系可能会缓冲青少年的风险轨迹，因此可能成为早期干预服务的重要潜在目标。
Youth who feel connected to people and institutions in their communities may be buffered from other risk factors in their lives. As a result, increasing connectedness has been recommended as a prevention strategy. In this study, we examined connectedness among 224 youth (ages 12–15), recruited from an urban medical emergency department, who were at elevated risk due to bullying perpetration or victimization, or low social connectedness. Regression analyses examined multiple domains of connectedness (family, school, peer, community) in relation to adjustment. Youth who felt more connected to parents reported lower levels of depressive symptoms, suicidal ideation, non-suicidal self-injury, and conduct problems, higher self-esteem and more adaptive use of free time. Youth who felt more connected to their school reported lower levels of depressive symptoms, suicidal ideation, social anxiety, and sexual activity, as well as higher levels of self-esteem and more adaptive use of free time. Community connectedness was associated with less social anxiety but more sexual activity, and peer connectedness was not related to youth adjustment in this unique sample. Findings suggest that family and school connectedness may buffer youth on a trajectory of risk, and may therefore be important potential targets for early intervention services.
