The current study quantified sex differences in psychopathology among 9 and 10-year-olds, examined sex differences among those with clinically elevated symptoms and investigated if puberty moderates the relationship between sex and psychopathology. Data were obtained from the Adolescent Brain and Cognitive Development (ABCD)® Study's NDA data release 2.0. Results suggest that males have higher scores and greater frequency of clinically meaningful levels of psychopathology across several domains. Puberty did not interact with sex to affect psychopathology. However, as puberty advanced, the percentage of males and females with elevated scores increased.
本研究量化了 9 岁和 10 岁儿童精神病理学中的性别差异,研究了具有临床显著症状的人群中的性别差异,并探讨了青春期是否调节了性别与精神病理学之间的关系。数据来自青少年大脑与认知发展 (ABCD)®研究的 NDA 数据发布 2.0 版。结果表明,男性在多个领域的精神病理学得分更高,且具有临床意义的水平的频率更高。青春期与性别之间没有相互作用来影响精神病理学。然而,随着青春期的进展,得分升高的男性和女性的比例增加。
