Using network analysis, this study investigated how family communication patterns (Conversation and Conformity) were related to and predictive of adolescent overall depression severity and specific symptoms. A community sample of adolescents (10-17 years, n = 1327) completed the Children's Depression Inventory and the Revised Family Communication Pattern Instrument. Depressive symptoms were also re-assessed 6 months later. Results showed that Conversation orientation protected against, whereas Conformity orientation increased the risk of adolescent depression. Family communication particularly influenced the child's feeling of being unloved, and feeling unloved was the only symptom prospectively predicted by two communication orientations at baseline. These findings revealed the path linking family factors to adolescent depression and may have implications for future family-based interventions.
本研究采用网络分析方法，探讨了家庭沟通模式（交流和顺应）与青少年整体抑郁严重程度和特定症状的关系及其预测作用。该研究对 1327 名 10-17 岁的青少年进行了社区抽样调查，让他们填写了《儿童抑郁量表》和《修订家庭沟通模式量表》。6 个月后，再次评估了他们的抑郁症状。结果表明，交流取向可以预防青少年抑郁，而顺应取向则会增加青少年抑郁的风险。家庭沟通对青少年感到不被爱的感觉影响尤其大，并且这种不被爱的感觉是仅有的两个沟通取向在基线时就能预测的症状。这些发现揭示了家庭因素与青少年抑郁之间的关联途径，这可能对未来基于家庭的干预措施具有重要意义。
