我们研究了898对配偶的敌意（自我和配偶）与抑郁症状自我评定的关系。敌意的自我评价最初是作为抑郁的预测因素进行研究的。接下来，在模型中加入配偶对敌意的自我评价。最后，研究了自我对配偶敌意的交互作用。这些关系探讨了敌意的三个组成部分（玩世不恭、攻击性反应和敌意影响）。所有模型都控制了年龄和教育程度，并分别对男女的影响进行了检验。敌意情绪的自我评定与男性和女性的抑郁症状呈正相关。愤世嫉俗的自我评价也与抑郁显著相关，但仅限于男性。对女性来说，配偶敌意的所有三个组成部分都与自己的抑郁症状呈正相关；而对男性来说，配偶的敌意与抑郁症状无关。这些发现强调了在社会单位中研究心理社会风险因素的必要性，并对干预有潜在的影响。
We examined the relations of hostility (of self and spouse) with self-ratings of depressive symptoms in 898 spouse pairs. Self-ratings of hostility were initially examined as predictors of depression. Next, spouse self-ratings of hostility ware added to the model. Finally, the interaction of self x spouse hostility was investigated. These relations were explored for three components of hostility (Cynicism, Aggressive Responding, and Hostile Affect). Age and education were controlled in all models and effects were examined separately for women and men. Self-ratings of Hostile Affect were positively related to depressive symptoms for both women and men. Self-ratings of Cynicism were also significantly related to depression, but only for men. All three components of spouse's hostility were positively related to one's own symptoms of depression for women For men, however, spouse's hostility was not related to symptoms of depression. These findings highlight the need to study psychosocial risk factors in social units and have potential implications for intervention.
