摘要

对成人的期望是如何影响心理健康的?我们从生命历程和社会心理学文献中得出结论，认为未能达到预期的成年标志与抑郁和焦虑有关。我们用来自美国500多名18至29岁年轻人的原始样本数据来测试预测。与预测一致，我们发现，即使在控制自己对成年标志成就的期望时，落后于预期与焦虑和抑郁之间也存在正相关关系。特别是，我们发现，落后于同龄人对成年标志的预期与焦虑有关，落后于父母和社会对成年标志的预期与抑郁症状有关。

Falling Behind and Feeling Bad: Unmet Expectations and Mental Health during the Transition to Adulthood

How do perceived expectations of what it means to be an adult affect mental health? We draw from life course and social psychological literature to argue that falling behind perceived expectations for reaching markers of adulthood is associated with depression and anxiety. We test predictions with data from an original sample of more than five hundred 18- to 29-year-olds in the United States. Consistent with predictions, we find a positive relationship between falling behind expectations and both anxiety and depression even while controlling for own expectations about the accomplishment of markers of adulthood. In particular, we find that falling behind perceived expectations of peers regarding markers of adulthood is associated with anxiety and that falling behind perceived expectations of parents and society regarding markers of adulthood is associated with depressive symptoms.
