摘要

目的本研究旨在探讨尼日利亚东南部伊博青少年接触富拉尼牧民袭击事件与抑郁症之间的关系。尽管先前的研究表明武装冲突和抑郁症之间存在直接关系,但从文献中还不知道是否存在间接途径。在条件过程分析中,研究了体罚是否介导和性别调节了这种关系。设计/方法/方法385名中学生(227名女生,157名男生;Mage=16.3;SD=1.35)在课堂上完成了一份问卷调查。分析中的变量是用可靠的量表测量的。条件过程分析是用process进行的。芬丁暴露于富拉尼牧民的袭击预测了青少年的抑郁症状,这种影响部分是由在家遭受体罚的经历介导的。女孩在家中通过体罚对抑郁症的间接影响比男孩更强,而接触富拉尼牧民袭击对抑郁症的直接影响男孩比女孩更强。研究局限性/含义由于研究设计是横截面的,而不是纵向的,因此应谨慎解释因果关系。新颖性/价值新的发现表明,生活在武装冲突的环境中可能会加剧父母对体罚的使用,这反过来可能导致青少年抑郁症状的增加。

The effect of exposure to armed conflict on depression as mediated by physical punishment: a study among Nigerian adolescents
Purpose This study aims to examine the relationship between exposure to the Fulani herdsmen attacks among Igbo adolescents in Southeastern Nigeria and depression. Although previous research suggests a direct relationship between armed conflict and depression to exist, it is not known from the literature whether there are indirect paths involved. In a conditional process analysis, it was examined whether physical punishment mediated and gender moderated this relationship. Design/methodology/approach A sample of 385 secondary school students (227 girls, 157 boys; Mage = 16.3; SD = 1.35) completed a questionnaire during class. Variables in the analysis were measured with reliable scales. The conditional process analysis was conducted with PROCESS. Findings Exposure to the Fulani herdsmen attacks predicted depressive symptoms among the adolescents, and the effect was partially mediated by the experiences of physical punishment at home. The indirect effect on depression via physical punishment at home was stronger for girls than boys, whereas the direct effect of exposure to the Fulani herdsmen attacks on depression was stronger for boys than girls. Research limitations/implications Because the research design was cross-sectional and not longitudinal, interpretations about causal relationships should be made with caution. Originality/value The novel findings suggest that living in an environment of armed conflict may exacerbate parents’ use of physical punishment, which in turn may lead to increased levels of depressive symptoms in adolescents.
