摘要: 本研究旨在探讨父母心理控制、高中生抑郁症状及其生命意义感的纵向关系,并揭示其潜在中介作用。采用整群抽样的方法,对西南地区2所中学的高一和高二年级共2355名学生(M年龄=15.82, 41.7%男生)进行间隔一年(两次)的追踪研究。施测工具包括依赖和成就导向的父母心理控制量表、抑郁症状量表和生命意义感量表。结果表明:(1)父母心理控制与高中生的抑郁症状存在双向关系,即父母的心理控制水平能显著正向预测一年后高中生的抑郁症状,高中生的抑郁症状也能显著正向预测一年后的父母心理控制水平;(2)高中生抑郁症状能够显著负向预测随后一年的意义存在感,但意义存在感对一年后抑郁症状的预测作用不显著;(3)父母心理控制可以显著地通过高中生抑郁症状的中介作用进一步负向预测高中生的意义存在感。研究启示:在家庭教育中父母应当注意教育手段,降低父母心理控制程度;同时家校应联合起来,重视青少年生命意义感的教育和培养,从而预防青少年心理健康问题。

Abstract: This longitudinal study examined the bidirectional relationships between parental psychological control, personal life meanings, and depressive symptoms among high school students. The participants were 2355 students (Mage = 15.82, 41.7% male) from two high schools in Southwest China. The measures include the Dependency-Oriented and Achievement-Oriented Psychological Control Scale, the Depressive Symptom Scale, and the Meaning in Life Questionnaire. The cross-lagged pannel models suggested: (1) A bidirectional relationship between parental psychological control and depressive symptoms over one year; (2) Depressive symptoms were found to significantly predict students’ sense of life meaning one year late. However, the presence of meaning did not have a significant effect on the prediction of depressive symptoms one year late; (3) Moreover, parental psychological control significantly predicted students’ sense of life meaning, with depressive symptoms acting as a mediation process between them. The study underscores the need for parental education programs designed to lessen the extent of psychological control. Furthermore, it calls for collaboration between families and schools in nurturing adolescents’ life meaning, positioning it as a preventive measure against mental health issues.
