Body dissatisfaction, disordered eating and depression differentially affect adolescent girls (compared to boys); however, these variables have not been examined in relation to ethnicity. A review of the literature finds that Black adolescent girls are more satisfied with their bodies than White adolescent girls and engage much less frequently in dieting or disordered eating than do White girls in the US. A central question raised by this review is whether body dissatisfaction and pubertal timing are as relevant to our understanding of the etiology of depression in Black girls as they appear to be in White girls. Based on the available data, it does not seem that a risk factor model supporting the role of early pubertal timing, weight increases and body dissatisfaction in the development of depression applies to Black adolescent girls. This review underscores the need for future research with a variety of ethnic minority groups to better understand the etiology of adolescent depression.
身体不满、饮食失调和抑郁对青春期女孩（与男孩相比）有不同的影响；然而，这些变量与种族的关系尚未得到研究。文献综述发现，黑人青春期女孩比白人青春期女孩对自己的身体更满意，在美国，她们节食或饮食失调的频率也比白人女孩低得多。这篇综述提出的一个核心问题是，身体不满和青春期发育时间对于我们理解黑人女孩抑郁症病因的相关性，是否与它们在白人女孩中表现出的相关性一样。根据现有数据，支持青春期发育时间过早、体重增加和身体不满在抑郁症发展中起作用的风险因素模型似乎并不适用于黑人青春期女孩。这篇综述强调了未来对各种少数族裔群体进行研究的必要性，以便更好地理解青少年抑郁症的病因。
