Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effects of life events, family environment and coping style on self-injury behavior in adolescents with first-episode depression.Methods:From July 2019 to December 2022, a total of 110 adolescent patients with first-episode depression were selected in the Psychiatry Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. According to whether the patients had self-injury behavior, the patients were divided into group without self-injury( n=54)and group with self-injury( n=56).Patients in the two groups were evaluated by a general clinical data questionnaire, adolescent self-rating life events checklist (ASLEC), family environment scale-Chinese version(FES-CV), simplified coping style questionnaire (SCSQ), 24 items Hamilton depression scale (HAMD-24), Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA) and 90 symptom checklist-90 (SCL-90). Statistical analysis including t-test, χ2 test and binary Logistic regression analysis were performed on the enrolled data by SPSS 25.0 statistical software. Results:Among 110 patients, there were 56 patients(50.9%) exhibited self-injury behavior.The scores of ASLEC(51.04±5.99, 48.02±6.86), intimacy(3.70±1.85, 4.59±1.60), emotional expression(3.84±1.80, 4.69±1.96), positive coping styles(15.84±5.85, 18.22±4.84), negative coping styles(12.50±3.23, 11.06±3.64), and HAMA(20.63±2.86, 19.48±2.55) showed statistically significant differences between the group with and without self-injury ( t=-2.46, 2.72, 2.36, 2.32, -2.20, -2.21, all P<0.05). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that life events ( B=0.079, OR=1.083, 95% CI=1.008-1.163, P=0.030), negative coping style ( B=0.173, OR=1.188, 95% CI=1.033-1.367, P=0.016), HAMA ( B=0.225, OR=1.252, 95% CI=1.057-1.482, P=0.009) were risk factors for self-injury, while intimacy ( B=-0.264, OR=0.768, 95% CI=0.593-0.995, P=0.046) and positive coping styles ( B=-0.092, OR=0.912, 95% CI=0.834-0.997, P=0.044) were protective factors for self-injury. Conclusion:The self-injury behavior of adolescents with first-episode depression may be related to negative life events, early adverse family environment and coping style.
