项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (Investigator's Abstract): The goal of this proposal is the improvement of education through acquisition of knowledge about how transfer students cope with adjustment in a new school. This knowledge will enhance the ability of teachers, school nurses, guidance counselors, and school administrators to educate the transfer student. The study will estimate the prevalence of depression, unhappiness, and anxiety in a cohort of adolescents who experience a geographic move. The objective is to establish baseline data on how adolescents cope with a move using six instruments: the Relocation Survey, the Multiple Affect Adjective Checklist, The Ways of Coping Questionnaire, the Reynolds Adolescent Depression Scale, the Rosenberg-Simmons Depressive Affect Scale, the Life Events Checklist. The intervention of a coping skills group will also be tested. Approximately 16 percent of the United States population, or one in six families, moves each year (U.S. Census Bureau, 1984). Literature on relocation stress reports both successful adaptation and trauma for children and adults. Few articles consider the impact of relocation on the adolescent. It is the aim of this study to contribute to the improvement of education by adding to the body of knowledge regarding the impact of relocation stress on the family by focusing on the adolescent's experience. The sample will include 50 adolescents aged 14-15 who have moved within the past three months and 50 adolescents as a control group who have not moved; they will be recruited from a mobile suburb of Western Pennsylvania. The results of the study will offer implications for teachers, school guidance counselors, parents, and health care professionals who are concerned with promoting positive school adjustment. The findings of the proposed study i.e., an estimation of a high risk cohort of adolescents who experience depression, anxiety, or unhappiness in association with the life event of a geographic relocation can be applied to future studies which would address whether a cohort of high risk relocated adolescents are more vulnerable to alcoholism, drug abuse, and other psychological problems. In a future study a larger cohort of relocated adolescents will be examined longitudinally utilizing middle and low income schools to determine whether the intervention can help the vulnerability of the relocated teen. A reasonable proposition is that adolescents just as adults, are also vulnerable to relocation stress and that coping and support would enhance adaptation.

描述(调查人员摘要)：本提案的目标是通过获取关于如何进行教育的知识来改进教育转学的学生要适应新学校的生活。这一知识将提升教师、学校护士、辅导辅导员、和学校管理人员对转学学生进行教育。这项研究将估计队列中抑郁、不快乐和焦虑的患病率经历过地理迁移的青少年。我们的目标是建立关于青少年如何应对搬家的基线数据，使用六项工具：重新定位调查，多重影响形容词检查表、应对方式问卷、《雷诺青少年》抑郁量表、Rosenberg-Simmons抑郁情感量表、生活事件清单。应对技能小组的干预也将是测试过。大约16%的美国人口，或者说1 在六个家庭中，每年都会搬家(美国人口普查局，1984)。关于文学的搬迁压力报告了成功的适应和创伤无论是孩子还是成年人。很少有文章考虑搬迁对青春期。这是本研究的目的所在，以期对这一改进有所贡献。通过增加关于教育的影响的知识通过关注青少年的经历来强调搬迁对家庭的压力。样本将包括50名14-15岁的青少年，他们在过去3个月和50名未搬家的青少年作为对照组；他们将从宾夕法尼亚州西部的一个流动郊区招募。这个研究结果将为教师、学校指导提供启示顾问、家长和卫生保健专业人员关心促进积极的学校适应。拟议研究的结果即，对经历了以下情况的高危青少年队列的估计抑郁、焦虑或不快乐与生活事件有关地理位置调整可以应用于未来的研究，这将解决重新安置的高危青少年队列是否比容易受到酗酒、吸毒和其他心理问题的影响。在……里面未来的一项研究将检查更大规模的重新安置的青少年队列纵向利用中低收入学校来确定是否这种干预可以帮助重新安置的青少年的脆弱性。一个合理的主张是，青少年和成年人一样，也是容易受到搬迁压力的影响，应对和支持将得到加强适应。
