Geographical relocation, with transfer to a new school, is a life transition experienced by many adolescents. The normal developmental tasks of adolescence may complicate the transition for relocated teens, particularly those with inadequate coping skills. This 2-year study, conducted in an upper-middle-income suburban community in the Northeast, with highly mobile students, compared the effects of relocation on 43 teens with matched non-relocated controls. While statistical significance was found in differences between the relocated and non-relocated groups, the relocated teens were only mildly anxious. There were no significant differences between the groups for depression, hostility, life events, or coping. Implications for schools and school nursing regarding health promotion interventions with relocated adolescents are discussed.
地理迁移，包括转学到新学校，是许多青少年经历的一种生活转变。青春期正常的发展任务可能会使迁移的青少年，尤其是那些应对技能不足的青少年的转变变得更加复杂。这项为期两年的研究在东北部一个中高收入的郊区社区进行，该社区学生流动性很大，研究比较了迁移对43名青少年的影响，并与匹配的未迁移对照组进行了对比。虽然在迁移组和未迁移组之间发现了统计学上的显著差异，但迁移的青少年只是轻度焦虑。两组在抑郁、敌意、生活事件或应对方面没有显著差异。文中还讨论了学校和学校护理对迁移青少年进行健康促进干预的意义。
