A new study surprised researchers, finding that for adolescent girls, romantic relationship problems can have serious, negative implications for their mental health. 一项新的研究震惊了研究者。研究发现对青春期的少女来说，感情问题对她们的精神健康会产生严重的负面影响。 “I found that girls’ risk of severe depression, thoughts of suicide, and suicide attempt increase the more their relationships diverge from what they imagined,” said the study’s author Brian Soller, Ph.D., an assistant professor of sociology at the University of New Mexico. “我发现，恋爱关系越偏离女孩的想象，她们患严重抑郁症的风险、自杀的想法和企图就会增加。”该研究的作者、新墨西哥大学的社会学助理教授布瑞恩·索勒博士说道。 “Conversely, I found no evidence that romantic relationship inauthenticity —which captures the extent to which relationships unfold in ways that are inconsistent with how adolescents think or feel they should —contributes to poor mental health among boys.” “相反，我发现即使恋情进展不尽如人意，恋爱关系也并不会影响男孩的精神健康。” Soller used data from more than 5,300 high school students from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health. From this data set he examined the mental health consequences of mismatches between adolescents’ ideal and actual relationships. |
