Using a longitudinal design, we examined changes in parent and peer attachment among college students, and their predictive and protective roles in relation to mental health problems during the COVID-19 pandemic. College students (N = 106) rated their parent and peer attachment, and self-reported anxiety, loneliness, and depressive symptoms 1 year before and during the pandemic. Participants also rated the impact of COVID-19 related stressors (CRS). Results demonstrate significant increases in loneliness and depression and a decrease in peer attachment security during the pandemic. Increases in peer attachment security were negatively correlated with loneliness during the pandemic. Parent attachment buffered the relationship between the impact of CRS and mental health problems during the pandemic. Guided by the integrated framework from attachment theory and life course theory, the current study discussed findings and practices regarding the important role of attachment for college students and their adjustment to the pandemic.

COVID-19 大流行期间对父母和同伴的依恋以及与心理健康的关系的变化

使用纵向设计，我们检查了大学生父母和同伴依恋的变化，以及他们在 COVID-19 大流行期间对心理健康问题的预测和保护作用。大学生（N= 106) 在大流行前一年和大流行期间评估了他们的父母和同伴依恋，以及自我报告的焦虑、孤独和抑郁症状。参与者还评估了 COVID-19 相关压力源 (CRS) 的影响。结果表明，在大流行期间，孤独感和抑郁症显着增加，同伴依恋安全感下降。在大流行期间，同伴依恋安全感的增加与孤独感呈负相关。父母依恋缓冲了大流行期间 CRS 的影响与心理健康问题之间的关系。本研究以依恋理论和生命历程理论的综合框架为指导，讨论了依恋对大学生的重要作用及其对大流行的适应的发现和实践。
