This study examined longitudinal associations between OOFs, intimate disclosure within these friendships, and depressive symptoms among adolescents. A total of 1089 teens aged 13–19 (<i>M</i> = 15.65, <i>SD</i> = 1.19; 581 girls, 492 boys, and 16 another gender identity) completed online surveys as part of a longitudinal study investigating adolescent development at two timepoints: October 2019 (T1) and February 2020 (T2).

When examining connections to ERI, research underscores the importance of considering individuals' patterns of exploration and resolution in tandem (i.e., ERI status) rather than analyzing them in isolation. Accordingly, the current study utilized latent profile analysis to examine how ERI status profiles were associated with dimensions of Latine adolescents' critical consciousness.

The objective of this study was to identify latent trajectories of youth suicide risk during the COVID-19 pandemic and examine differential risk by demographic subgroups. We leverage a national crisis dataset (<i>n</i> = 6741 youth in crisis) and employ latent Markov models and multinomial logistic regression to identify suicide risk classes and model within-person suicide risk trajectories from pre-pandemic to the extended pandemic response period (2019–2022) among a cohort of young people (ages 24 and younger). This analysis identified three suicide risk classes: low risk (sample ranges from 4831 to 5199 texters across periods), high risk (sample ranges from 1246 to 1030 texters across periods), and very high risk (sample ranges from 664 to 506 texters across periods). Overall, suicide risk declined during the pandemic (e.g., low risk class +5.4 percentage points). Yet, person-centered results emphasize variable risk for younger youth, transgender and gender diverse (TGD) youth, and Black/African American youth across pandemic periods. Specifically, younger youth (i.e., 13 and under) were associated with 50% higher odds than youth 18–24 years to transition from low to very high (OR: 1.50, CI: 1.05–2.15) and 93% higher odds to transition from very high to low risk (OR: 1.93, CI: 1.44–2.61). TGD youth were associated with the highest odds of transitioning to high-risk classes during the early pandemic (OR<sub>Low_VeryHigh</sub>: 1.79, CI: 1.33–2.41), compared to girls/women. Black/African American youth were associated with 122% higher odds of transitioning to very high risk during the extended pandemic period (OR: 2.22, CI: 1.24–3.97), compared to White youth.

We also found that higher internalizing symptoms predicted a greater likelihood of entering into a romantic relationship among initially single adolescents. Breakups and internalizing symptoms did not predict each other over time. Gender and age did not moderate any associations.
