Abstract

Abstract: The current study characterized the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and stay-at-home orders on adolescents' internalizing symptoms and assessed predictors of adolescents' internalizing symptoms during the pandemic. Seventy-nine adolescents (18 autistic, 61 nonautistic) and their parents who participated in a previous study and were at least 10 years old ( M = 13.8, SD = 1.7) were invited to participate in three online follow-up surveys post-stay-at-home order (May through November 2020). Measures of children's anxiety and depressive symptoms, parenting practices, family togetherness, conflict, financial problems, and parental mental health during the pandemic were collected. Nonautistic adolescents experienced a significant decrease in anxiety symptoms across the beginning of the pandemic and a significant increase in depressive symptoms from pre- to post-stay-at-home order. Permissive parenting and financial problems predicted adolescents' depressive symptoms. Parental mental health difficulties and permissive parenting predicted adolescents' anxiety symptoms. Results underscore the need to support parents and youth.
在COVID-19大流行之前和期间对青少年心理健康的调查
摘要:本研究旨在研究新冠肺炎大流行和居家令对青少年内化症状的影响,并评估大流行期间青少年内化症状的预测因素。79名青少年(18名自闭症患者,61名非自闭症患者)及其父母参加了之前的一项研究,年龄至少为10岁(M = 13.8, SD = 1.7),他们被邀请参加了三次在线随访调查,之后(2020年5月至11月)呆在家里。收集了大流行期间儿童焦虑和抑郁症状、育儿做法、家庭团聚、冲突、经济问题和父母心理健康的测量数据。非自闭症青少年在大流行开始时的焦虑症状显著减少,而从呆在家里之前到之后,抑郁症状显著增加。纵容型父母和经济问题预示着青少年的抑郁症状。父母心理健康困难和纵容型父母可以预测青少年的焦虑症状。结果强调了支持父母和青年的必要性。
