The author presents data on the relationships between life events, coping resources, and depressive symptomatology. A probability sample (N = 517) was interviewed three years apart. Respondents with high life-event scores had significantly more depressive symptomatology than those with low scores. Those with personal, familial, and interpersonal resources had significantly less depressive symptomatology than those without such resources in both the low- and high-life-event groups. The best predictor of Time 2 depressive symptom scores was Time 1 symptom scores; losses and resources were also statistically significant factors. These findings demonstrate the complex interrelatedness of life events, coping resources, and depressive symptomatology.
作者展示了关于生活事件、应对资源和抑郁症状之间关系的数据。一个概率样本（N = 517）在相隔三年的时间里接受了访谈。生活事件得分高的受访者比得分低的受访者有明显更多的抑郁症状。在低生活事件组和高生活事件组中，拥有个人、家庭和人际资源的受访者比没有这些资源的受访者有明显更少的抑郁症状。第二次抑郁症状得分的最佳预测因素是第一次的症状得分；损失和资源也是具有统计学意义的因素。这些发现证明了生活事件、应对资源和抑郁症状之间复杂的相互关联性。
