Published Online:July 31, 2013https://doi.org/10.1026/0943-8149/a000098

Abstract

Depressionen im Jugendalter sind häufig. Probleme und Belastungen beim Jugendlichen selbst und in seinem Lebensumfeld können die depressive Störung sowohl auslösen als auch in deren Folge noch häufiger auftreten. Ziel der vorliegenden Studie ist die Beschreibung von Problembelastungen bei depressiven Jugendlichen. 57 Mädchen, die die DSM-IV Kriterien für eine Major Depression erfüllten, und 60 nicht-depressive Mädchen wurden mit dem Problemfragebogen für Jugendliche untersucht. Depressive Mädchen fühlten sich deutlich mehr problembelastet als die Kontrollgruppe, vor allem in den Problembereichen Schule, Selbstwert und Gesundheit.


Psychosocial problem areas in depressed adolescent girls

Major depression is a frequent disorder in adolescents. Psychosocial problems may lead to depression. Problems also may be a consequence of the disorder, and may promote its further maintenance. The present investigation aims to describe problem areas in adolescents with major depression. Fifty-seven girls fulfilling DSM IV criteria for major depression were compared to 60 nondepressed subjects in eight problem areas, assessed by a standardized and validated questionnaire. Depressed girls had significantly higher scores on all but one problem scales, in particular in the areas covering school, self efficacy, and health
