“…Regarding childhood neglect, we found that childhood neglect had a direct and long-lasting effect on the severity of adolescent depression. This consistent with the work of Wang et al [ 34 ]. And within the DAMP, exposure to childhood neglect (deprivation) relates to severe impairment of executive functioning [ 69 ] and language ability [ 70 ].…”

“…Within DAMP, these two dimensions co-occur and increase the risk for psychopathology but have unique effects on developmental consequences [ 11 , 32 ]. Empirically, a small number of studies examined the effects of childhood abuse and neglect on EMSs [ 33 ] or the effects of these two types of childhood maltreatment on depression [ 34 ]. However, empirical research on the dynamic relationship among childhood abuse and neglect, depression, and EMSs is still scarce.…”

Background Adolescent depression has grown to be a major social concern in China. During the coronavirus pandemic, the incidence of depression among Chinese adolescents increased substantially. More research is required to inform the prevention and intervention of adolescent depression in China. Depression is associated with Early Maladaptive Schemas (EMSs). Childhood abuse and neglect are distal antecedents of adolescent depression. It is not known how depression and EMSs interact in adolescence and how childhood abuse and neglect contribute to this relationship. This study aimed to examine the reciprocal relationships between depression and EMSs, as well as the long-term effects of childhood abuse and neglect on depression and EMSs during adolescence. The work also investigates gender differences in these mechanisms. Methods Using a two-wave longitudinal design, we recruited 3,485 Chinese adolescents (Mage = 13.2; 43.2% females) from three Shanxi Province, China middle schools. All participants completed self-report questionnaires addressing childhood abuse and neglect, depression, and EMSs. Structural equation models examined reciprocal relationships between depression and EMS, as well as the effect of childhood abuse and neglect on depression and EMSs. Multi-group analysis addressed gender differences. Results Results indicated that greater depression predicted more EMSs measured later, but EMSs did not predict subsequent depression. Childhood abuse and neglect had different effects on depression and EMSs during adolescence. Specifically, exposure to childhood abuse related to more severe depression and EMSs in adolescence and contributed to the perpetuation of EMSs by increasing depression. Exposure to childhood neglect showed a direct effect on depression and indirectly reinforced subsequent EMSs through depression. There were no gender differences. Conclusion These findings contribute to a better understanding of the emergence and course of depression in early adolescence, suggesting that childhood abuse and neglect are critical early risk factors. Additionally, depression plays a key role in promoting schema perpetuation among adolescents exposed to childhood maltreatment, providing important implications for relevant prevention and intervention in early adolescence.

Background More activity participation is an important means of handling depression and promoting positive aging, but the impact of changes in activity participation on the developmental trajectory of depression has not been fully studied. Objective The purpose of this study is to study the relationship between current activity participation and depression in middle-aged and older people (≥45 years old) and the relationship between activity participation and the developmental trajectory of depression in later life in China. Methods This study used data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) across 7 years and included a total of 4818 middle-aged and older people (≥45 years old). Controlling for relevant control variables, the latent growth curve model and the cross-lag model were used to assess the effect of changes in activity participation on the depression trajectory in later life and the main lag relationship between activity participation and depression. Activity participation as well as depression were measured using the self-reported activity and health status based on the CHARLS questionnaire. Results Among the 4818 respondents, the mean values of physical activity participation, social leisure activity participation, and depression ranged from 76.98 (SD 15.16) to 83.95 (SD 5.72), from 7.43 (SD 8.67) to 9.25 (SD 10.16), and from 7.61 (SD 5.72) to 8.82 (SD 6.51), respectively. Our findings revealed that activity participation could be related to depression. Physical activity participation predicted initial depression (β=–0.631, P<.001) and its trajectory (β=0.461, P<.001). However, social leisure activity participation predicted initial depression (β=–0.223, P<.001) but did not predict its trajectory (β=0.067, P=.159). Finally, cross-lag regression analysis further demonstrated the predictive effect of activity participation on depression. Conclusions This study demonstrates the prediction of activity participation for future depression in the Chinese middle-aged and older populations. The data showed that activity participation is significantly associated with changes in depression and future depression among middle-aged and older people in China. The Chinese government should encourage middle-aged and older people to participate in various activities, which can effectively prevent the aggravation of depression and also have a positive significance for positive aging.

“…In addition, the psychological effects of ACE may be gender-related. Under the in uence of ACE, women at all stages are more likely to show symptoms of depression, while men are more likely to experience a loss of interest at the same stage [23]. Both of these changes can be associated with infertility.…”

Background Accumulating evidence indicates that infertile individuals are often associated with poor mental health. However, there are few studies focus on the trauma exposure of infertile individuals. Meanwhile, adverse childhood experiences (ACE) are often associated with poor mental health, especially the development of post-traumatic stress symptoms (PTSS). Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the condition of traumatic exposure and the prevalence of PTSS in people with infertile in Shanghai, and then explore the effect of ACE among infertile people of childbearing age who reported experiencing trauma exposure. Methods The cross-sectional study was conducted from October 2021 to September 2022. A total of 213 infertile patients in Shanghai Changzheng Hospital were selected by random sampling. After screening, a total of 194 experimental data were obtained. The participants filled out the demographic questionnaires, self-developed trauma exposure questionnaire. Childhood trauma questionnaire (CTQ) and the primary care PTSD screen for DSM-5 (PC-PTSD-5) were used to investigate ACE and PTSS, respectively. Results Traumatic events were experienced in 41.8% of infertility patients. Only 4.10% of infertile patients had PTSS. Maternal education level (p = 0.019) had significant influence on whether PTSS occurred in patients. Logistic regression analysis indicated age, emotional abuse (EA) and physical neglect (PN) increased the probability of patients reporting trauma exposure, while emotional neglect (EN) reduced the possibility of reporting trauma. Conclusions Undesirable the high incidence of traumatic experience of infertility population, especially ACE, has an important impact on their treatment and recovery at the moment, as well as the future development of mental health. More evidence between PTSS and trauma exposure are needed in the future to strengthen this conclusion.
