Co-occurring trajectories of delinquent behavior and depressive symptoms and their correlates were examined in a longitudinal sample of 985 middle-adolescent boys and girls (mean age = 15.54 years at Time 1). Dual trajectory analysis was used to identify the co-occurring trajectories. For boys (n = 472), 4 delinquency and 4 depression trajectory groups were found. For girls (n = 513), 3 delinquency and 3 depression trajectory groups were identified. The linkage between co-occurring trajectories was higher for girls than for boys. Stressful life events and childhood precursors of the outcomes predicted trajectory group membership for both genders fairly consistently. Findings suggest heterogeneity in developmental courses of delinquent behavior and depressive symptoms across adolescent boys and girls.
在一个由985名青少年中期男孩和女孩组成的纵向样本中(时间1时平均年龄 = 15.54岁),研究了犯罪行为和抑郁症状的共同出现轨迹及其相关因素。采用双轨迹分析来识别共同出现的轨迹。对于男孩(n = 472),发现了4个犯罪轨迹组和4个抑郁轨迹组。对于女孩(n = 513),识别出了3个犯罪轨迹组和3个抑郁轨迹组。女孩共同出现轨迹之间的联系比男孩更高。压力性生活事件和结果的童年先兆相当一致地预测了两性的轨迹组成员身份。研究结果表明,青少年男孩和女孩在犯罪行为和抑郁症状的发展过程中存在异质性。
