Childhood trauma has been regarded as a risk factor for adolescent depression. Resilience has been found to be a protective factor for adolescent mental health. However, it is not clear about the role of resilience in the relationship between childhood trauma and depression.
School attending adolescents (n=6406) aged 9-17 years were drawn from five primary schools, three middle schools and two high schools in Wuhan city of China in 2015. The participants were invited to complete self-report questionnaires, including demographics, childhood trauma, resilience and depressive symptoms.
Resilience played a partially mediating role in the relationship between childhood trauma and depressive symptoms. Resilience also moderated the association of childhood trauma with depressive symptoms.
The limitations of this study include cross-sectional study and self- reported instruments.
We conclude that resilience may play an important role in the relationship between childhood trauma and depressive symptoms. Our results suggest that enhancing resilience may provide new possibilities for prevention and intervention of depression in adolescents.
童年创伤被视为青少年抑郁的一个风险因素。复原力已被发现是青少年心理健康的一个保护因素。然而，复原力在童年创伤与抑郁之间的关系中所起的作用尚不清楚。
2015年从中国武汉市的五所小学、三所初中和两所高中抽取了6406名9至17岁的在校青少年。邀请参与者完成自我报告问卷，包括人口统计学信息、童年创伤、复原力和抑郁症状。
复原力在童年创伤与抑郁症状之间的关系中起部分中介作用。复原力也调节了童年创伤与抑郁症状之间的关联。
本研究的局限性包括横断面研究和自我报告工具。
我们得出结论，复原力可能在童年创伤与抑郁症状之间的关系中起重要作用。我们的结果表明，增强复原力可能为青少年抑郁症的预防和干预提供新的可能性。
