Problem-solving interactions were observed in 86 families of depressed adolescents and 408 families of non-depressed adolescents. Sequential analyses indicated that mothers of depressed adolescents were more likely than mothers of non-depressed adolescents to increase facilitative behavior in response to adolescent depressive behavior. Additionally, fathers of depressed adolescents were more likely than their counterparts in families of non-depressed adolescents to decrease aggressive behavior subsequent to adolescent depressive behavior. These analyses suggest that parents of depressed adolescents may be inadvertently reinforcing depressive behavior. Decreases in adolescent depressive symptomatology from year 1 to year 2 were not accompanied by changes in family interaction patterns.
在86个抑郁青少年家庭和408个非抑郁青少年家庭中观察到了解决问题的互动情况。序列分析表明，抑郁青少年的母亲比非抑郁青少年的母亲更有可能在青少年出现抑郁行为时增加促进性行为。此外，抑郁青少年的父亲比非抑郁青少年家庭中的父亲更有可能在青少年出现抑郁行为后减少攻击性行为。这些分析表明，抑郁青少年的父母可能在无意中强化了抑郁行为。从第1年到第2年，青少年抑郁症状的减轻并未伴随着家庭互动模式的改变。
