Mothers (n = 155) and their adolescent children (n = 146; aged 12-13 at pre-COVID wave [Time 1, September 2019 to March 2020]) repeated measures of anxiety and depressive symptoms, and details about the impacts of the pandemic and social distancing at Time 2 (May-June 2020). Average slopes of mother and adolescent depression increased but anxiety symptoms decreased from Time 1 to Time 2. Adolescent decreases in anxiety symptoms were driven by males, whereas depression increase was driven by females. Adolescents' depression slopes were steeper for those who reported more negative changes. Implications are discussed relative to findings from other regions and later phases of the pandemic.
母亲(n=155)及其青少年子女(n=146;在 COVID-19 前波期间[2019 年 9 月至 2020 年 3 月,时间 1]的年龄为 12-13 岁)在时间 2(2020 年 5 月至 6 月)重复测量了焦虑和抑郁症状,并详细记录了大流行和社会隔离的影响。从时间 1 到时间 2,母亲和青少年的抑郁平均斜率增加,但焦虑症状减少。青少年焦虑症状的下降是由男性驱动的,而抑郁的增加是由女性驱动的。对于报告更多负面变化的青少年,其抑郁斜率更陡峭。与其他地区和大流行后期的研究结果相比,讨论了这些结果的意义。
