“…For example, the inhibition control deficits that depression-prone youths usually display (e.g., Ajilchi, and Nejati 2017) have been found to contribute to a sustained focus on negative or distressing material as well as greater use of maladaptive emotion-regulation strategies, including rumination (Dickson et al, 2017). Moreover, depressed individuals usually face difficulties in emotional awareness and recognition (i.e., acknowledging and differentiating between various emotions; Rieffe et al, 2008; Sendzik et al, 2017) that may amplify the risk of using dysfunctional cognitive strategies (e.g., rumination; Eckland & Berenbaum, 2020) instead of healthy ones (e.g., cognitive reappraisal; Volkaert et al, 2020).…”

The main aim of this study was to examine one potential mediator of the prospective association between depressive symptoms and peer victimization: sadness rumination. Data were collected from 302 early adolescents ( Mage = 0.53, SD =.16; 55.3% girls), at two waves, 1-year spaced, using self-reports. Depressive symptoms preceded increases in peer victimization and sadness rumination. Sadness rumination preceded increases in peer victimization. Sadness rumination mediated the relationship between depressive symptoms and increases in peer victimization. Multi-group analysis indicated that the mediation model tested was significant for boys, but not for girls. Overall, depression-related peer victimization could be minimized with intervention programs targeting early adolescents’ sadness rumination tendencies. Future research should further explain why depressed boys may face greater risk than girls in displaying increases in sadness rumination over time, which in turn, may lead to more frequent experiences of peer victimization.

“…Bullied adolescents tend to use maladaptive emotion regulation strategies and disengagement to cope with their distress. However, these ways of coping maintain and even heighten stress or negative affects (Volkaert et al, 2020). Pure victims tend to internalize shame, and others' rejection of them is not discharged but internalized.…”

The aim of the present study was to investigate the use of specific coping strategies by bullied adolescents, taking account of the distinction between pure victims and bully-victims, as well as gender-specific patterns. Participants were 967 adolescents aged 11-16 years, who responded to self-report questionnaires on school bullying victimization, cognitive coping, and situational coping. Adolescents in the pure victim, bully-victim and noninvolved groups did not differ in their use of approach coping. However, pure victims and bully-victims used more avoidance coping than noninvolved adolescents. Compared with the latter, pure victims reported greater use of avoidance coping strategies such as internalizing and self-blame, while female pure victims also reported greater use of rumination. Both male and female bully-victims were characterized by higher use of blaming others and self-blame strategies, compared with the noninvolved group.In addition, rumination, catastrophizing, cognitive distancing, and externalizing scores were higher for male bully-victims than for either noninvolved participants or pure bullies. Identifying these differing coping strategies may be useful in developing more effective counselling strategies for the victims of bullying.

“…Overweight prevalence was 29%, of which 12 participants had obesity. For 21.2%, mild depressive symptoms (CDI > 13) were reported [ 44 ], and 70.1% had moderate stress levels (PSS > 13) [ 50 ]. The four BMI/stress groups did not differ in sex, Tanner stage, parental education, hunger at study start, total wanting, trait emotional eating, and most baseline stress parameters.…”

Stress Responsiveness and Emotional Eating Depend on Youngsters’ Chronic Stress Level and Overweight

The persistent coexistence of stress and paediatric obesity involves interrelated psychophysiological mechanisms, which are believed to function as a vicious circle. Here, a key mechanistic role is assumed for stress responsiveness and eating behaviour. After a stress induction by the Trier Social Stress Test in youngsters (n = 137, 50.4% boys, 6–18 years), specifically those high in chronic stress level and overweight (partial η2 = 0.03–0.07) exhibited increased stress vulnerability (stronger relative salivary cortisol reactivity and weaker happiness recovery) and higher fat/sweet snack intake, compared to the normal-weight and low-stress reference group. Stress responsiveness seems to stimulate unhealthy and emotional eating, i.e., strong cortisol reactivity was linked to higher fat/sweet snack intake (β = 0.22) and weak autonomic system recovery was linked to high total and fat/sweet snack intake (β = 0.2–0.3). Additionally, stress responsiveness acted as a moderator. As a result, stress responsiveness and emotional eating might be targets to prevent stress-induced overweight.
