Although evidence from previous studies suggests that adolescents with negative coping styles who experienced victimization are more likely to exhibit depressive symptoms, these associations have not yet been disentangled to separate between-person differences from within-person effects. To investigate the within-person bidirectional relationships among relational victimization, coping styles and depressive symptoms, this study conducted a four-wave random intercept cross-lagged panel model analysis. The final sample consisted of 1506 adolescents, 72.6% of whom were male, with a mean age of 10.90 years (SD = 1.12) at the first time point. The findings revealed a prospective within-person association between relational victimization and depressive symptoms, and a reciprocal within-person relationship between depressive symptoms and avoidance coping. The approach coping style negatively predicted depressive symptoms over time, whereas depressive symptoms did not affect the approach coping style. These findings show how depressive symptoms, relational victimization, and coping styles are related at the individual level, extending previous research through the demonstration of stable within-person associations over time.
尽管先前研究的证据表明，经历过受害的具有消极应对方式的青少年更有可能表现出抑郁症状，但这些关联尚未被厘清，以区分个体间差异与个体内效应。为了研究关系型受害、应对方式和抑郁症状之间的个体内双向关系，本研究进行了四波随机截距交叉滞后面板模型分析。最终样本包括1506名青少年，其中72.6%为男性，在第一个时间点的平均年龄为10.90岁（标准差=1.12）。研究结果揭示了关系型受害与抑郁症状之间的前瞻性个体内关联，以及抑郁症状与回避应对之间的个体内互惠关系。随着时间的推移，积极应对方式对抑郁症状有负向预测作用，而抑郁症状并未影响积极应对方式。这些发现表明了抑郁症状、关系型受害和应对方式在个体层面上是如何关联的，通过展示随时间稳定的个体内关联扩展了先前的研究。
