Abstract:
BackgroundSeveral studies have confirmed that there is a relationship among parenting rearing behaviors， adolescent depression and rumination， moreover， rumination has been found to mediate the relationship between overall parenting rearing behaviors and adolescent depression， while little is known about the mediating role of rumination in the relationship between each dimension of parenting rearing behaviors and adolescent depression. ObjectiveTo explore the mediating role of rumination in the relationship between each dimension of parenting rearing behaviors and adolescent depression， so as to provide reference for the prevention of adolescent depression. MethodsIn March and April 2022， a stratified random sampling technique was utilized to select 302 students in grades 7 to 12 at a middle school in Ningxian county， Gansu Province as the research subjects. The Beck Depression Inventory-II of Chinese Version （BDI-II-C）， short-form Egna Minnen av Barndoms Uppfostran （S-EMBU） and Ruminative Response Scale （RRS） were administered to all subjects. Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated. Amos 24.0 was used to check the presence of mediation effect. ResultsA total of 302 （94.08%） completed valid questionnaires. Correlation analysis indicated that the scores of both father's and mother's emotional warmth dimension in the S-EMBU were negatively correlated with the BDI-II-C scores （r=-0.424， -0.297， P<0.01）， RRS total score （r=-0.347~-0.175， P<0.01） and RRS each factor score （r=-0.179~-0.285， P<0.01）； the scores of both father's and mother's rejection dimension in the S-EMBU were positively correlated with the BDI-II-C scores （r=0.355， 0.248， P<0.01）， RRS total score （r=0.262~0.358， P<0.01） and RRS each factor score （r=0.274~0.339， P<0.01）； the scores of both father's and mother's overprotection dimension in the S-EMBU were positively correlated with the BDI-II-C scores （r=0.286， 0.245， P<0.01）， RRS total score （r=0.175~0.333， P<0.01） and RRS each factor score （r=0.150~0.255， P<0.01）. Rumination might mediated the relationship of father's emotional warmth， father's overprotection， mother's overprotection， and mother's rejection with adolescent depression， the effect value were -0.110， 0.221， -0.121， 0.136， and the effect size were 36.07%， 100.00%， 100.00%， 100.00%. ConclusionRumination may play a mediation role in the relationship of father's emotional warmth， father's overprotection， mother's overprotection， and mother's rejection with adolescent depression. ［Funded by Shaanxi Provincial Key Research and Development Program （number， 2024SF-YBXM-078）； Reaearch and Development Fund of the First Affliated Hoapital of Xi'an JiaoTong University （number， 2022HL-23）］
