Current research has been focusing on non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) behaviors among adolescents with depression. Although family intimacy and adaptability are considered protective factors for NSSI, evidence supporting this relationship is lacking.
This study aims to examine the mechanisms operating in the relationship between family intimacy and adaptability and NSSI behaviors among adolescents.
A self-administered general demographic information questionnaire, the Behavioral Functional Assessment Scale for Non-Suicidal Self-Injury, the Family Intimacy and Adaptability Scale, the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and the Self-Assessment of Depression Scale were distributed among adolescents with depression in three tertiary hospitals in Jiangsu Province.
The relationship between family intimacy and adaptability and NSSI was assessed among 596 adolescents with depression. The results revealed the following: (1) Family intimacy and adaptability were negatively correlated with NSSI behavior. (2) Psychological resilience and depression levels acted as chain mediators in the relationship between family intimacy and adaptability and NSSI behavior.
Enhancing psychological resilience, controlling depressive symptoms, and reducing depression severity among adolescents by improving their family intimacy and adaptability are conducive to preventing and mitigating their NSSI behaviors.
目前的研究主要集中在患有抑郁症的青少年中的非自杀性自我伤害(NSSI)行为。尽管家庭亲密感和适应性被认为是 NSSI 的保护因素,但缺乏支持这种关系的证据。
本研究旨在探讨家庭亲密感和适应性与青少年 NSSI 行为之间关系的作用机制。
在江苏省的三家三级医院,向患有抑郁症的青少年发放了一份自我管理的一般人口统计学信息问卷、行为功能评估量表非自杀性自我伤害、家庭亲密感和适应性量表、Connor-Davidson 韧性量表和自我评估抑郁量表。
对 596 名患有抑郁症的青少年进行了家庭亲密感和适应性与 NSSI 之间关系的评估。结果表明:(1)家庭亲密感和适应性与 NSSI 行为呈负相关。(2)心理韧性和抑郁水平在家庭亲密感和适应性与 NSSI 行为之间的关系中起链中介作用。
通过提高青少年的家庭亲密感和适应性,增强心理韧性,控制抑郁症状,减轻抑郁严重程度,有助于预防和减轻他们的 NSSI 行为。
