Abstract

This study explored the association between body mass index (BMI), weight and appetite change, the severity of depression and anxiety, and related physical symptoms in youth seeking treatment for depression and/or suicidality. Youth completed self-report surveys and were categorized by BMI into healthy weight, overweight, and obese groups. Findings demonstrated overweight and obese participants were more likely to come from low-income households. Obese youth were more likely to report recent increases in appetite compared to healthy and overweight youth and in perceived weight compared to healthy weight youth. Obese youth had worse depression severity than overweight youth and worse physical function compared to healthy and overweight youth. Appetite and perceived weight changes were generally associated with worse clinical symptoms, with appetite more consistently associated with poorer presentations. These findings suggest high BMI, particularly within the obese range, is of concern for depressed youth, potentially putting them at risk for poorer clinical characteristics.

体重、食欲、抑郁和焦虑之间的关系:来自德克萨斯州青少年抑郁和自杀研究网络(TX-YDSRN)的研究结果。
本研究探讨了寻求抑郁症和/或自杀治疗的青少年体重指数(BMI)、体重和食欲变化、抑郁和焦虑的严重程度以及相关身体症状之间的关系。青少年完成了自我报告调查,并根据BMI分为健康体重、超重和肥胖组。研究结果表明,超重和肥胖的参与者更有可能来自低收入家庭。与健康和超重的青少年相比,肥胖青少年更有可能报告最近食欲增加,与健康体重的青少年相比,体重增加。肥胖青少年的抑郁程度比超重青少年更严重,与健康和超重青少年相比,身体功能更差。食欲和体重变化通常与较差的临床症状相关,食欲更一致地与较差的表现相关。这些发现表明,高体重指数,特别是在肥胖范围内,是抑郁症青年的关注焦点,可能会使他们面临较差临床特征的风险。

HPO is dedicated to publishing cutting-edge research in health psychology from around the world. HPO seeks to provide a platform for both traditional empirical analyses and more qualitative and/or critically oriented approaches to health psychology. All areas of health psychology are covered, but these topics are of particular interest: Clinical health psychology Critical health psychology Community health psychology Health psychology practice Health psychology through a social, cultural or regional lens The journal particularly favours papers that focus on health psychology in practice, including submissions concerning community and/or clinical applications and interventions. Review articles are also welcomed. There is no fixed limit to the length of manuscripts, which is normally strictly limited in other journals, for example HPO’s sister journal, Journal of Health Psychology (JHP).
