The purpose of the current investigation was to examine the role of emotion regulation in the link between peer factors and adolescent adjustment difficulties. The sample consisted of 206 adolescents (ages 10-18 years) and parents. Peer factors (i.e., peer antisocial behavior, peer co-rumination, peer emotion regulation) and youth depressive symptoms were based on youth reports. Youth emotion regulation and antisocial behavior were assessed using parent and youth ratings. Results showed that peer antisocial behavior was directly (but not indirectly) related to youth antisocial behavior and depressive symptoms, whereas peer emotion regulation was indirectly (but not directly) related to both adolescent outcomes. In addition, peer co-rumination was indirectly related to youth antisocial behavior and directly and indirectly related to youth depressive symptoms. In general, the results indicated little evidence of moderation by adolescent age, sex, or ethnic differences. Implications for peer relationships as socialization contexts are discussed.
当前调查的目的是检验情绪调节在同伴因素与青少年适应困难之间的联系中所起的作用。样本包括206名青少年（年龄在10至18岁之间）及其父母。同伴因素（即同伴反社会行为、同伴共同反刍、同伴情绪调节）和青少年抑郁症状基于青少年的报告。青少年情绪调节和反社会行为通过父母和青少年的评分进行评估。结果表明，同伴反社会行为与青少年反社会行为和抑郁症状直接相关（但非间接相关），而同伴情绪调节与青少年的这两种结果均间接相关（但非直接相关）。此外，同伴共同反刍与青少年反社会行为间接相关，与青少年抑郁症状直接和间接相关。总体而言，结果几乎没有表明青少年年龄、性别或种族差异起到调节作用。文中讨论了同伴关系作为社会化背景的意义。
