The relationship between body weight and depression among adolescent females has been the subject of considerable attention from researchers. The risk of experiencing this distress, however, is not equally distributed across members of all racial groups. African American girls are generally more satisfied with their bodies and thus may be less vulnerable to experiencing depression as a result of weight concerns. Several scholars have suggested that membership in African American culture provides social resources that protect black females from experiencing high levels of weight-based psychological distress. We examine the relationship between body size and depression and the potentially moderating role of African American cultural experiences using data from the Family and Community Health Study (FACHS). Assessing a cohort of 342 African American girls ages 12-14, we found support for a link between weight and depression. There was no evidence, however, that exposure to African American culture moderated this relationship.
青少年女性的体重与抑郁之间的关系一直是研究人员相当关注的主题。然而，这种困扰的风险在所有种族群体的成员中分布并不均匀。非裔美国女孩通常对自己的身体更满意，因此可能不太容易因体重问题而患上抑郁症。几位学者认为，非裔美国文化成员身份提供了社会资源，保护黑人女性免受基于体重的高度心理困扰。我们使用家庭与社区健康研究（FACHS）的数据，研究体型与抑郁之间的关系以及非裔美国文化体验可能起到的调节作用。在评估了342名年龄在12至14岁的非裔美国女孩的队列后，我们发现体重与抑郁之间存在关联的证据。然而，没有证据表明接触非裔美国文化会调节这种关系。
