ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the relationships among attachment,parental attachment and parental rearing style of adolescent depression.Methods 36 outpatients and hospital patients in Anhui Mental Health Center with depression and their parents were involved as the case group,33 age-,gender-,and education-matched high school students and their parents as the normal controls.The case group and control group were assessed with Experiences in Close Relationships Inventory (ECR) and Parental Rearing Pattern Questionnaire (EMBU).Results ① The score of attachment avoidance and anxiety dimension in the depression group were obviously higher than that of the control group(73.19 ± 16.63 vs 66.25 ± 12.91,62.76 ± 13.90 vs 51.97 ± 13.69,P ＜ 0.01) ;the score of mother's attachment anxiety in the depression group were significantly higher than that of the control group (72.06 ± 14.23 vs 57.42 ± 12.81),and there were significant differences between two groups (P ＜ 0.01).②The attachment avoidance was positively correlated with parental attachment avoidance in the depression group (r =0.534,r=0.488 ; P＜ 0.01).The attachment anxiety dimension was positively correlated with mother's attachment anxiety in depression group (r =0.532,P ＜ 0.01).Attachment avoidance was negatively correlated with parental warmness(r =-0.406,r =-0.462,P ＜ 0.01),however attachment avoidance had positive correlation with father's punishment and mother's rejection in depression group (r=0.395,r=0.468; P＜0.05).Father's attachment avoidance was negatively correlated with father's warmness(r =-0.527,P＜ 0.01),and mother's attachment avoidance was negatively correlated with mother's warmness (r =-0.491,P ＜ 0.01),which was positively correlated with mother's rejection (r =0.392,P ＜ 0.05).③ Regression analysis showed that mother's warmness rearing style had full mediating effect on the relationship between mother's attachment avoidance and attachment avoidance in depression group,and then mother's refused rearing style partly mediated the relationship between them.But father's warmness didn(t) have mediating effect on the relationship between father's attachment avoidance and attachment avoidance in depression group.Conclusion The attachment pattern is insecure in the depression group.Parenting attachment and rearing style significantly influence on adolescent depression attachment patterns,and mother's rearing style has mediating effect on the relationship between mother's attachment and depression attachment.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo explore the relationship among dream threat level,life events and childhood trauma in obsessive-compulsive patients.Methods 59 obsessive-compulsive patients and 57 healthy controls were tested with Dream Threat Questionnaire (DTQ),Childhood Trauma Questionnaire ( CTQ ) and Life Events Scale (LES).The dream threat level were compared between the two groups,and correlation and regression analysis were used to research the relationship of the variables for patients’ data.ResultsCompared with the healthy controls,patients had significantly higher DTQ score ( 1.40 ± 2.23 vs 3.31 ± 3.04,P ＜ 0.01 ),CTQ total score (34.21 ± 8.47 vs 43.02 ± 10.78,P ＜ 0.01 ),LES total score ( 16.88 ± 16.42 vs 45.39 ± 46.01,P ＜ 0.01 ) and its negtive life events subscore ( 14.14 ± 14.61 vs 39.56 ± 42.94,P ＜ 0.01 ).Correlation analysis showed that dream threat level,negative life events and childhood trauma were significantly positively correlated each other( r =0.326 ～0.402,P ＜ 0.05 ～0.01 ).Regression analysis indicated that childhood trauma directly predicted dream threat level (β =0.104,P ＜ 0.05 ) and completely mediated the relationship between negative life events and dream threat level.ConclusionObsessive-compulsive patients have higher dream threat level,more childhood trauma experience and life events.Childhood trauma experience is a significant factor influencing dream threat level,and as a complete mediation by which life events influence dream threat level.
