Abstract

Given the importance that love has in individuals’ lives, and considering that more specific studies about the relationship between depression and the way people love are lacking, the aim of the current study was to evaluate the effect of major depressive disorder (MDD) on “love styles.” This study was nested in a cohort of adolescent mothers. Women were assessed for MDD at each point of assessment: during pregnancy (T1), at between 30 and 60 postpartum days (T2), and at approximately 30 postpartum months (T3), by using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI PLUS) tool. The Love Attitudes Scale (LAS) was administered to assess the six love styles at T3. Logistic regression analyses were carried out to express the strength of depression on love styles. We found that chronic major depression had the largest effect on the love styles (low Eros, high Mania, and high Agape), followed by current major depression. However, the same association was not observed in the perinatal period. Thus, the assessment of love style is relevant as it seems that an MDD-related injury in maternal life is related to their attitudes about love and there could be possible harmful consequences of these attitudes to the mother and the whole family.

母亲慢性抑郁影响爱情方式:巴西南部的一项队列研究

鉴于爱在个人生活中的重要性，并考虑到缺乏关于抑郁与人们爱的方式之间关系的更具体的研究，本研究的目的是评估重度抑郁症(MDD)对“爱的方式”的影响。这项研究是在一组青少年母亲中进行的。通过使用Mini国际神经精神病学访谈(Mini PLUS)工具，在每个评估点对妇女进行重度抑郁症评估:怀孕期间(T1)、产后30至60天(T2)和产后约30个月(T3)。采用恋爱态度量表(LAS)对三年级的六种恋爱方式进行评估。采用Logistic回归分析表达抑郁对恋爱方式的影响程度。我们发现慢性重度抑郁症对恋爱方式的影响最大(低Eros、高Mania和高Agape)，其次是当前重度抑郁症。然而，在围产期没有观察到同样的关联。因此，对爱的方式的评估是相关的，因为母亲生活中与mdd相关的伤害似乎与她们对爱的态度有关，并且这些态度可能对母亲和整个家庭产生有害的后果。
