This study examines maternal religiosity as a protective factor against depression in offspring.
Sixty mothers and 151 offspring were independently assessed over the course of a 10-year follow-up. Maternal and offspring religiosity were assessed on the basis of self-report of the importance of religion, the frequency of attendance of religious services, and religious denomination. Depression was assessed using the Schedule for Affective Disorders-Lifetime version. Maternal bonding style was assessed through offspring report on the Parental Bonding Instrument. A series of logistic regressions were run to predict offspring depression status, taking into account maternal religiosity, offspring religiosity, and mother-offspring concordance of religiosity.
Maternal religiosity and mother-offspring concordance of religiosity were shown to be protective against offspring depression, independent of maternal parental bonding, maternal social functioning, and maternal demographics.
Maternal religiosity and offspring concordance with it may protect against depression in offspring.
本研究考察母亲的宗教虔诚度作为子代抑郁症保护因素的作用。
在10年随访过程中,对60位母亲和151名子代进行独立评估。根据宗教重要性的自我报告、宗教仪式出席频率和宗教派别评估母亲和子代的宗教虔诚度。使用情感障碍终生版量表评估抑郁症。通过子代对父母教养方式问卷的报告评估母亲的依恋风格。进行一系列逻辑回归分析,以预测子代抑郁状况,同时考虑母亲的宗教虔诚度、子代的宗教虔诚度以及宗教虔诚度上的母子一致性。
母亲的宗教虔诚度以及宗教虔诚度上的母子一致性被证明可预防子代抑郁,独立于母亲的教养方式、母亲的社会功能和母亲的人口统计学特征。
母亲的宗教虔诚度及其与子代的一致性可能预防子代抑郁。
