越来越多的证据表明,随着青春期的到来,女孩患抑郁症的几率高于男孩。然而,对于造成这种新出现的性别差异的风险因素尚未有全面的了解。先前的研究表明,自我差异(认为自己未能实现重要的个人目标)和沉思式应对(一种被动地、反复地关注自己的失败以及失败的原因和后果的倾向)都会导致抑郁,而且青春期女孩比青春期男孩更有可能出现这两种情况。在这项转化研究中,我们测试了这样一个假设:虽然实际:理想差异和沉思应对方式都可以独立预测青春期女孩的抑郁症,但高水平的实际:理想差异和沉思应对方式的结合可以预测更严重的抑郁症状。对 223 名 7 年级至 12 年级女孩样本的横断面数据分析揭示了沉思式应对方式的显着主效应、实际与理想差异的趋势以及预测的交互效应。我们讨论了这种综合心理社会模型对青春期女孩抑郁症的病因、治疗和预防的影响。
There is increasing evidence that with the onset of adolescence, girls experience higher rates of depression than boys. However, a comprehensive understanding of the risk factors contributing to this emerging gender difference has yet to be attained. Previous studies indicate that both self-discrepancy, the perception that one is failing to attain an important personal goal, and ruminative coping, a tendency to passively and repetitively focus on one's failure and the causes and consequences of that failure, contribute to depression and that adolescent girls are more likely to manifest each than adolescent boys. In this translational study we tested the hypothesis that, whereas both actual:ideal discrepancy and ruminative coping style would independently predict depression in adolescent girls, the combination of high levels of actual:ideal discrepancy and ruminative coping would predict more severe depressive symptoms. Analyses of cross-sectional data in a sample of 223 girls ranging from 7th through 12th grades revealed a significant main effect for ruminative coping style and a trend for actual:ideal discrepancy, as well as the predicted interaction effect. We discuss the implications of this integrative psychosocial model for the etiology, treatment, and prevention of depression in adolescent girls.
