Schizotypal experiences and depressive symptoms are quite common among adolescents, and have been considered as risk markers for schizophrenia-spectrum and mood disorders. The main goal of the present study was to analyze the relationship between schizotypal experiences and depressive symptoms in a community sample of non-clinical adolescents. The sample comprised a total of 1653 participants, 794 male (48%), with an average age of 15.94 years (SD = 1.23). Results showed that schizotypal traits and depressive symptoms were closely related at a subclinical level. Canonical correlation analysis indicated that the two sets of variables shared approximately 48% of the variance. The study of the dimensionality underlying the subscales of the self-reports revealed the presence of three components, namely: Depressive, Anhedonia and Reality Distortion. These results are convergent with previous studies conducted in both clinical and non-clinical samples, indicating overlap between schizotypal experiences and depressive symptoms.
分裂型体验和抑郁症状在青少年中较为常见,被认为是精神分裂症谱系和情绪障碍的风险标志物。本研究的主要目的是分析社区非临床青少年群体中分裂型体验和抑郁症状之间的关系。样本共包括 1653 名参与者,其中男性 794 名(48%),平均年龄为 15.94 岁(SD = 1.23)。结果表明,在亚临床水平上,分裂型特质和抑郁症状密切相关。典型相关分析表明,两组变量共享约 48%的方差。对自我报告量表亚量表的维度研究揭示了存在三个成分,分别是:抑郁、快感缺失和现实扭曲。这些结果与在临床和非临床样本中进行的先前研究一致,表明分裂型体验和抑郁症状之间存在重叠。
