Abstract
Background: Little is known about the latent profiles of cognitive emotion regulation strategy (CERS) and its relationship with negative emotions and Non-Suicidal Self-Injury (NSSI) in Chinese junior high school students, although CERS is thought to be strongly associated with emotional-behavioral problems in adolescents.
Methods: A total of 2807 junior high school students in Yunnan Province, China, were selected for the study. They were measured with the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ), the Non-Suicidal Self-Injury Questionnaire, and the Depression-Anxiety-Stress Scale. Latent profile analysis was used to explore latent profiles of CERS among students, and the one-way ANOVA or c2 test was used to explore the relationship between the profiles and depression, anxiety, stress or NSSI.
Results: (1) Latent profile analysis revealed five CERS types: 'Maladaptive group' (32.25%), 'Moderate adaptive-low maladaptive group' (24.68%), 'Rigid group' (19.73%), 'High adaptive-moderate maladaptive group' (14.42%), and 'Sensitive group' (8.82%). (2) The multivariable logistic regression analyses showed that with increasing age (OR = 0.812, 95% CI = 0.66-0.99, p < 0.05), junior high school students were less likely to be in the 'Moderate adaptive-low maladaptive group', and males (OR = 0. 698, 95% CI = 0.52-0.94, p < 0.05) were less likely to be classified as 'Moderate adaptive-low maladaptive group'; (3) ANOVA and c2 test results showed that the differences between the different latent profiles of junior high school students on anxiety, depression, stress and NSSI indicators were statistically significant (p < 0.05). The 'Sensitive group' had the highest risk of emotional-behavioral problems and the 'Moderate adaptive-low maladaptive group' had the lowest risk of emotional-behavioral problems.
Conclusion: Negative emotions and NSSI in junior high school students are closely related to their CERS profiles, and it is important to use targeted strategies to prevent and intervene in emotional-behavioral problems for individuals with different CERS subtypes.
背景:中国初中生认知情绪调节策略(CERS)的潜在特征及其与负性情绪和非自杀性自伤(NSSI)的关系尚不清楚,尽管CERS被认为与青少年情绪行为问题密切相关。方法:选取云南省2807名初中生为研究对象。采用认知情绪调节问卷(CERQ)、非自杀性自伤问卷和抑郁-焦虑-压力量表进行测量。使用潜在特征分析来探索学生CERS的潜在特征,并使用单因素方差分析或c2检验来探索这些特征与抑郁、焦虑、压力或自伤的关系。结果:(1)潜剖面分析显示5种CERS类型:“适应不良组”(32.25%)、“中适应-低适应不良组”(24.68%)、“刚性组”(19.73%)、“高适应-中度适应不良组”(14.42%)和“敏感组”(8.82%)。(2)多变量logistic回归分析显示,随着年龄的增长(OR = 0.812, 95% CI = 0.66-0.99, p 2检验结果显示,初中生不同潜型在焦虑、抑郁、压力和自伤指标上的差异均有统计学意义(p)。初中生的负性情绪和自伤与其cer特征密切相关,针对不同cer亚型的个体,采取有针对性的策略预防和干预情绪行为问题具有重要意义。
期刊介绍:
Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Mental Health, the official journal of the International Association for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Allied Professions, is an open access, online journal that provides an international platform for rapid and comprehensive scientific communication on child and adolescent mental health across different cultural backgrounds. CAPMH serves as a scientifically rigorous and broadly open forum for both interdisciplinary and cross-cultural exchange of research information, involving psychiatrists, paediatricians, psychologists, neuroscientists, and allied disciplines. The journal focusses on improving the knowledge base for the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of mental health conditions in children and adolescents, and aims to integrate basic science, clinical research and the practical implementation of research findings. In addition, aspects which are still underrepresented in the traditional journals such as neurobiology and neuropsychology of psychiatric disorders in childhood and adolescence are considered.
