This study aimed to (a) identify the different patterns of perceived barriers to psychological treatment in Chinese college students with depression and (b) determine whether self-compassion and depression severity distinguished individuals with different patterns.
This study included 338 college students with depression. The perceived barriers to psychological treatment scale were used. Latent profile analysis (LPA) was performed to identify the differential patterns.
Results of LPA indicated four patterns of perceived barriers, which differed with respect to levels and patterns, namely, "low barriers" (31%, n = 105), "moderate barriers" (45%, n = 153), "attitudinal and availability barriers" (18%, n = 61), and "high barriers" (6%, n = 19). Self-compassion (particularly, negative self-compassion) and depression severity distinguished participants with the four patterns.
A small number of participants reporting high levels across different types of barriers deserve special attention because they would be less likely to seek professional help.
本研究旨在:(a) 识别中国大学生抑郁患者对心理治疗的感知障碍的不同模式;(b) 确定自我同情和抑郁严重程度是否区分了具有不同模式的个体。
本研究纳入了 338 名患有抑郁的大学生。使用了对心理治疗的感知障碍量表。采用潜在剖面分析(LPA)来识别不同的模式。
LPA 的结果表明存在四种感知障碍模式,这些模式在水平和模式上存在差异,即“低障碍”(31%,n=105)、“中度障碍”(45%,n=153)、“态度和可得性障碍”(18%,n=61)和“高障碍”(6%,n=19)。自我同情(特别是消极的自我同情)和抑郁严重程度区分了具有这四种模式的参与者。
少数报告存在不同类型障碍的高障碍水平的参与者值得特别关注,因为他们不太可能寻求专业帮助。
