Abstract

Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), a condition characterized by an undertreated trajectory and frequently marked by a chronic course, is broadly acknowledged to be a critical public health issue worldwide. While substantial evidence is available showing the significant role of resilience in depression, the current understanding of mediating factors influencing this relationship in the early stages of MDD remains limited. To fill this gap in the literature, in the present study, we explored the effect of eating behaviors and basic psychological needs in a cohort of individuals newly diagnosed with MDD. The model was tested using a sample of a total of 328 Turkish individuals newly diagnosed with MDD (87% women, Mage = 31.51 ± 11.03 years). The following four psychometrically sound instruments were employed to collect data immediately following diagnosis: Brief Resilience Scale (BRS), Depression-Anxiety-Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21), Basic Psychological Needs Scale (BPNS), and Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ). After controlling demographic variables, the results confirmed that resilience is significantly negatively associated with depression. Uncontrolled eating behavior and autonomy, competence, and relatedness needs were found to be four mediators and partially mediated the relation of resilience with depression. The results also revealed that cognitive restriction and emotional eating behaviors did not significantly mediate this relationship. These findings suggest that early interventions targeting eating behaviors, such as promoting healthy eating patterns and addressing unmet psychological needs could strengthen resilience and reduce the risk of chronic depression in individuals newly diagnosed with MDD.

心理弹性在重性抑郁症发病中的关键作用及其通过饮食行为和心理需求的影响。
重度抑郁症(MDD)是一种以治疗不足为特征的疾病,通常以慢性病程为特征,被广泛认为是世界范围内的一个重要公共卫生问题。虽然有大量证据表明心理韧性在抑郁症中的重要作用,但目前对影响重度抑郁症早期阶段这种关系的中介因素的理解仍然有限。为了填补这一文献空白,在本研究中,我们探讨了饮食行为和基本心理需求对一组新诊断为重度抑郁症的个体的影响。该模型使用328名土耳其新诊断为重度抑郁症的个体样本进行测试(87%为女性,年龄= 31.51±11.03岁)。在诊断后立即使用以下四种心理测量学上健全的工具收集数据:简要恢复量表(BRS)、抑郁-焦虑-压力量表-21 (DASS-21)、基本心理需求量表(BPNS)和三因素饮食问卷(TFEQ)。在控制人口学变量后,结果证实心理弹性与抑郁呈显著负相关。不受控制的饮食行为和自主性、能力和相关性需求是心理弹性与抑郁之间的四个中介因子,并在其中起到部分中介作用。研究结果还显示,认知限制和情绪化饮食行为在这一关系中没有显著的中介作用。这些发现表明,针对饮食行为的早期干预,如促进健康的饮食模式和解决未满足的心理需求,可以增强新诊断为重度抑郁症的个体的复原力,降低慢性抑郁症的风险。
