Abstract

School connectedness may offset mental health risks associated with childhood adversity. The present study examined the potential protective effects of school connectedness against childhood adversity when predicting adolescent mental health outcomes in 9,964 individuals (51% female, 81% white) from the Millennium Cohort Study. Structural equation models were fitted to examine the longitudinal relationships between childhood adversity, school connectedness, and adolescent mental health. Childhood adversity was a risk factor, predicting greater internalizing and externalizing problems and lower levels of positive mental health. School connectedness was a promotive factor as it predicted fewer mental health problems and greater positive mental health. Furthermore, school connectedness at age 11 was protective against childhood adversity when predicting internalizing and externalizing problems at age 14. That is, students with a history of adversity who felt more connected to school were less likely to exhibit internalizing and externalizing symptoms than those who felt less connected to school. Only school connectedness at age 11 was protective against childhood adversity, indicating that feeling connected to school at younger ages may disrupt processes linking childhood adversity to adolescent mental health. Schools should foster students' feelings of connectedness to protect vulnerable individuals and benefit all pupils' mental health.

学校联系是童年逆境与青少年心理健康结果之间的保护因素。
学校联系可抵消与童年逆境相关的心理健康风险。本研究从 "千禧年队列研究"(Millennium Cohort Study)中的 9964 人(51% 为女性,81% 为白人)中考察了学校关联性在预测青少年心理健康结果时对童年逆境的潜在保护作用。我们建立了结构方程模型来研究童年逆境、学校联系和青少年心理健康之间的纵向关系。童年逆境是一个风险因素,预示着更大的内化和外化问题以及更低的积极心理健康水平。学校联系是一个促进因素,因为它预示着较少的心理健康问题和较高的积极心理健康水平。此外,11 岁时的学校联系在预测 14 岁时的内化和外化问题时,对童年逆境具有保护作用。也就是说,与那些与学校联系较少的学生相比,与学校联系较多的有逆境史的学生出现内化和外化症状的可能性较小。只有 11 岁时与学校的联系才对童年逆境有保护作用,这表明,在较小的年龄就感到与学校有联系,可能会破坏童年逆境与青少年心理健康之间的联系过程。学校应培养学生的联系感,以保护易受伤害的个体,并有益于所有学生的心理健康。
