Abstract: | The goal of the current study is to examine whether neuroticism, cognitive emotional regulation deficits, and/or their interaction
predict increased engagement in risky behaviors following increases in symptoms of depression. At Time 1, 411 Chinese adolescents
from Yue Yang, Hunan completed self-report measures assessing cognitive emotion regulation, depressive symptoms, and risky
behavior engagement. Follow-up assessments occurred once a month for 6 months, and participants completed measures assessing
depressive symptoms and risky behavior engagement. In line with our hypotheses, results of idiographic, multilevel modeling
analyses indicated that individuals who exhibited high levels of neuroticism and a tendency to utilize maladaptive cognitive
emotional regulation strategies were more likely than individuals possessing only one or neither of these vulnerability factors
to report greater engagement in risky behaviors following increases in symptoms of depression. |
