Abstract

Research on depression among Latinx populations is increasing; however, a focus on what triggers depression among this community is lacking. This study aims to identify perceived triggers for depression through a secondary analysis of 28 adolescent girls who self-identified as Latinx (mean age = 17.07 years, SD = 0.77). Sixty-one percent of the girls reported being first generation (born in Mexico), having lived in Mexico an average of 8.95 years and the primary language at home being Spanish (63%). Of these, the associated triggers of 20 major depression episodes (MDE) and eight minor depressive episodes (i.e., two to four MDE criteria endorsed) were examined. Seventy-five triggers were identified with a majority reflecting family/parent relationships, romance/friendship issues, and self and others’ expectations/pressures. These findings suggest that certain life events and stressors precede depressive symptoms among Latinx adolescent girls.
抑郁症:拉丁裔少女的触发因素
对拉丁裔人群抑郁症的研究正在增加;然而,对于是什么引发了这个社区的抑郁症,却缺乏关注。这项研究旨在通过对28名自称拉丁裔(平均年龄=17.07岁,SD=0.77)的青春期女孩的二次分析,确定抑郁的诱因。61%的女孩是第一代(出生于墨西哥),在墨西哥平均生活8.95年,家里的主要语言是西班牙语(63%)。其中,研究了20次严重抑郁发作(MDE)和8次轻度抑郁发作(即认可的2至4次MDE标准)的相关诱因。确定了75个触发因素,其中大多数反映了家庭/父母关系、浪漫/友谊问题以及自我和他人的期望/压力。这些发现表明,在拉丁裔少女中,某些生活事件和压力源先于抑郁症状。
