Abstract:
Previous research has lacked a comprehensive, longitudinal analysis of characteristics of solitude and sociability, and how they are associated with changes in psychosocial adjustment before and during the pandemic. The current study surveyed 1071 adolescents (Mage = 10.6, SD = 1.69, 49.86% female, age range = 8-14 years at Year 1) over six years (three years before pandemic, three years during pandemic). Piecewise linear mixed-effects analysis showed that adolescents with higher solitude and lower sociability reported improvements in adjustment during the pandemic, whereas adolescents with lower solitude and higher sociability reported declines in adjustment. The findings highlight the importance of considering multiple characteristics of solitude and sociability, as well as contextual factors (e.g., pandemic), to better understand the implications of solitude on adolescent adjustment.
摘要:
以前的研究缺乏全面的,孤独和社交能力特征的纵向分析,以及它们如何与大流行之前和期间的心理社会适应变化相关联。目前的研究调查了1071名青少年(Mage=10.6,SD=1.69,49.86%女性,年龄范围=第一年的8-14岁)超过六年(大流行前三年,大流行期间的三年)。分段线性混合效应分析表明,孤独感和社交能力较低的青少年在大流行期间的适应有所改善,而孤独感较低、社交能力较高的青少年报告说适应能力下降。研究结果强调了考虑孤独和社交能力的多种特征的重要性,以及上下文因素(例如,大流行),更好地理解孤独对青少年适应的影响。
