Adolescent Depressive Symptoms

During adolescence, young people develop crucial capacity for emotion regulation, and family context can be a risk or protective factor for adolescents developing affective disorders. We leveraged data from the Florida Youth Substance Abuse Survey ( N = 7664) to propose adolescent emotion regulation as a mediator between family conflict, family protection, and adolescent depressive symptoms in the social development model. Latent moderated structural equation modeling revealed that adolescent regulation of negative emotions mediated the relationship between family conflict and depressive symptoms—adolescents with higher family conflict had more emotion regulation difficulties and more depressive symptoms. Adolescent age was a moderator such that associations between family protective factors and reduced depression, and between family conflict and emotion regulation difficulties were weaker in high school compared to middle school. Findings highlight the importance of youth emotion regulation processes and family emotional context in reducing adolescent depressive symptoms.

AbstractObjective:The aim of this study was to model the relationships among white matter hyperintensities (WMHs), depressive symptoms, and cognitive function and to examine the mediating effect of depressive symptoms on the relationship between WMHs and cognitive impairment.Methods:We performed structural equation modeling using cross-sectional data from 1158 patients from the Clinical Research for Dementia of South Korea (CREDOS) registry who were diagnosed with mild-to-moderate dementia. Periventricular white matter hyperintensities (PWMHs) and deep white matter hyperintensities (DWMHs) were obtained separately on the protocol of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Depression and cognitive function were assessed using the Korean Form of the Geriatric Depression Scale (KGDS) and the Seoul Neuropsychological Screening Battery (SNSB), respectively.Results:The model that best reflected the relationships among the variables was the model in which DWMHs affected cognitive function directly and indirectly through the depressive symptoms; on the other hand, PWMHs only directly affected cognitive function.Conclusions:This study presents the mediation model including the developmental pathway from DWMHs to cognitive impairment through depressive symptoms and suggests that the two types of WMHs may affect cognitive impairment through different pathways.

Difficulties In Emotion Regulation

Zusammenfassung. Theoretischer Hintergrund: Viele psychische Störungen gehen mit Emotionsregulationsdefiziten einher. Fragestellung: Ziel ist die Überprüfung der Gütekriterien der deutschsprachigen Übersetzung der Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS) bei Jugendlichen. Methode: Die DERS und weitere Fragebögen zur Validierung wurden in einer Schülerstichprobe von 324 Jugendlichen ( M = 15.15 Jahre, SD = 1.14, 57 % weiblich) und einer klinischen Stichprobe von 97 Jugendlichen ( M = 16.25 Jahre, SD = 1.28, 83 % weiblich) erhoben. Die Faktorenstruktur wurde mit einer Konfirmatorischen Faktorenanalyse und dem ESEM-Ansatz (Exploratory Structural Equation Modeling) überprüft. Ergebnisse: Die Reliabilität der DERS war in der Schülerstichprobe und in der klinischen Stichprobe sehr gut. Der ESEM-Ansatz ergab eine Sechs-Faktoren-Lösung mit einem zusätzlichen Methodenfaktor. Schlussfolgerungen: Zusammengefasst zeigt sich die DERS als ein geeignetes Verfahren zur Erfassung von Emotionsregulationsschwierigkeiten bei Jugendlichen.
