Relationship of life events and social support with psychological dysfunction among adolescents

Abstract: Relationships among major life events, perceived social support, and psychological disorder were assessed in a sample of older adolescents. Negative life events and satisfaction with social support were significantly and independently related to a range of psychological symptoms.

“…Colarossi and Eccles (2000) reported high negative correlations between adolescent depressive symptoms and self-esteem (-.53) and high positive correlations between adolescent self-esteem and peer support (.37); and, finally, high negative correlations between adolescent depressive symptoms and peer support (-.43). Depressive and somatic symptoms, as well as symptoms of general anxiety and interpersonal sensitivity, also accompany low satisfaction concerning poor social support received by young adults and adolescents (Burke and Weir, 1978;Compas, Slavin, Wagner and Vannatta;. In a study involving a high risk group of Hispanic secondary school students, Demaray and Malecki (2002) found significant negative associations between: clinical maladjustment and parent and classmate support; anxiety and classmate support; depression and parent and classmate support; school adjustment and parent and teacher support; and attitudes against teacher and parent supports.…”

“…En ce qui concerne les éléments de risque pouvant être rattachés au soutien social, des auteurs ont démontré que les adolescents et jeunes adultes qui sont insatisfaits de leur soutien social auraient plus de probabilité de développer des troubles d'anxiété, de dépression et des troubles psychosomatiques (Burke et Weir, 1978 ;Compas et al, 1986). (Feiring, Taska et Lewis, 1996).…”

“…L'insatisfaction concernant le soutien social de la part de la famille est associée à la présence de symptômes dépressifs élevés chez les adolescents (Compas, Slavin, Wagner & Vannatta, 1986;Kashani, Suarez, Jones & Reid, 1999;Lewinsohn, 1974;Sicotte, 1998;Vendette & Marcotte, 2000;Windle, 1992), spécialement chez les filles (Slavin & Rainer, 1990 La théorie d'attachement élaboré par Bowlby (1969) examine l'impact de la relation parent-enfant sur le développement de la personne (Goldberg, 1993). Des études menées auprès d'adolescents démontrent un lien entre le type d'attachement parental anxieux ou inquiet (manquant de sécurité) et la dépression (Armsden, McCauley, Greenberg, Burke & Mitchell, 1990;Blain, Thompson & Whiffen, 1993;Hammen, 1995;Kobak, Sudler, & Gamble, 1991;Laible, Carlo & Raffaelli, 2000).…”

“…La dépression à l'adolescence est également liée au sentiment d'être rejeté par les parents (Garber, Robinson & Valentier, 1997) ainsi qu'à l'impression de recevoir peu d'affection maternelle (Garber, Robinson, Valentiner, 1997;Rey, 1995). Les écrits relèvent une insatisfaction concernant le soutien social de la part de la famille chez des adolescents présentant un nombre élevé de symptômes dépressife 80 (Compas, Slavin, Wagner & Vannatta, 1986;Donnelly, 1999;Kashani, Suarez, Jones & Reid, 1999;Lewinsohn, 1974;Sicotte, 1998;Vendette & Marcotte, 2000;Windle, 1992).…”
