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（研究者摘要）：该提案的目标是通过获取有关如何进行的知识来改善教育转学生在新学校适应调整。这些知识将提高教师、学校护士、辅导员的能力，和学校管理人员对转学生进行教育。该研究将估计队列中抑郁、不快乐和焦虑的患病率经历地理搬迁的青少年。目标是使用六种方法建立关于青少年如何应对搬家的基线数据工具：搬迁调查、多重影响形容词清单、应对方式问卷、雷诺兹青少年抑郁量表，罗森伯格-西蒙斯抑郁情绪量表，生活活动清单。应对技能小组的干预也将是已测试。大约 16% 的美国人口，或者说 1 六个家庭每年都会搬家（美国人口普查局，1984 年）。有关的文献搬迁压力报告了成功的适应和创伤儿童和成人。很少有文章考虑搬迁对企业的影响青少年。本研究的目的是促进改善通过增加有关影响的知识体系来促进教育通过关注青少年的经历来减轻家庭的搬迁压力。样本将包括 50 名 14-15 岁的青少年，他们在过去三个月没有搬家的50名青少年作为对照组；他们将从宾夕法尼亚州西部的一个流动郊区招募。这研究结果将对教师、学校指导产生影响关心以下问题的辅导员、家长和医疗保健专业人员推动学校积极调整。拟议研究的结果即，对经历过以下情况的高风险青少年群体的估计与生活事件相关的抑郁、焦虑或不快乐地理迁移可以应用于未来的研究，这将解决一群高风险的重新安置青少年是否更容易容易出现酗酒、吸毒和其他心理问题。在未来的一项研究将对更多的搬迁青少年进行检查纵向利用中低收入学校来确定是否干预措施可以帮助缓解搬迁青少年的脆弱性。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，应对和支持将增强适应。
