Abstract

Introduction: The Perfectionism Social Disconnection Model (PSDM) posits that perfectionism confers risk for depression by promoting social disconnection. However, the specific indirect effect of social disconnection on the prospective relation of perfectionism dimensions with depression severity is not well understood. The aim of the current study was to provide the first comprehensive examination of the PSDM. Methods: A diverse community sample of 447 completed measures of trait perfectionism, perfectionistic self-presentation styles, and depressive symptoms at baseline. Six months later, participants completed measures of perfectionistic self-presentation styles, social disconnection, and depressive symptoms. Indirect effects models were analyzed to examine the impact of each facet of perfectionism on social disconnection and subsequent depression severity. Results: Consistent with the PSDM, all perfectionism traits and self-presentation styles resulted in greater depression severity via one or more facets of social disconnection, with social hopelessness and loneliness demonstrating the most widespread effects. Furthermore, perfectionistic self-presentation styles and social disconnection demonstrated sequential indirect effects on the relation of self-oriented and socially prescribed perfectionism with depressive symptoms at follow-up. Discussion: This study is the first to demonstrate the depressogenic effects of all perfectionism dimensions. Findings delineate the interpersonal mechanisms underlying the perfectionism-depression link.
多维完美主义与抑郁之间的联系:社会脱节干预效应的纵向研究
引言:完美主义社会脱节模型(PSDM)认为完美主义通过促进社会脱节而增加患抑郁症的风险。然而,社会脱节对完美主义维度与抑郁症严重程度的预期关系的具体间接影响尚不清楚。本研究的目的是首次对PSDM进行全面检查。方法:447名不同的社区样本在基线时完成了特质完美主义、完美主义自我表现风格和抑郁症状的测量。六个月后,参与者完成了完美主义自我呈现风格、社交脱节和抑郁症状的测量。分析了间接效应模型,以检验完美主义的各个方面对社会脱节和随后的抑郁严重程度的影响。结果:与PSDM一致,所有完美主义特征和自我表现风格都会通过社交脱节的一个或多个方面导致更严重的抑郁症,其中社交绝望和孤独表现出最广泛的影响。此外,完美主义的自我呈现风格和社会脱节对自我导向和社会规定的完美主义与抑郁症状的关系在随访中表现出顺序的间接影响。讨论:这项研究首次证明了所有完美主义维度的抑郁效应。研究结果描绘了完美主义与抑郁之间潜在的人际机制。

期刊介绍: This journal is devoted to the application of theory and research from social psychology toward the better understanding of human adaptation and adjustment, including both the alleviation of psychological problems and distress (e.g., psychopathology) and the enhancement of psychological well-being among the psychologically healthy. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) traditionally defined psychopathology (e.g., depression), common emotional and behavioral problems in living (e.g., conflicts in close relationships), the enhancement of subjective well-being, and the processes of psychological change in everyday life (e.g., self-regulation) and professional settings (e.g., psychotherapy and counseling). Articles reporting the results of theory-driven empirical research are given priority, but theoretical articles, review articles, clinical case studies, and essays on professional issues are also welcome. Articles describing the development of new scales (personality or otherwise) or the revision of existing scales are not appropriate for this journal.
