Trajectories of depressive symptoms in middle-aged and older Chinese adults: identifying subgroups, core symptoms and predictors
Overview
This study analyzes depressive symptom trajectories among middle-aged and older Chinese adults using longitudinal data from over 7,000 participants. It identifies three distinct trajectory groups and highlights demographic and health factors associated with worsening symptoms. The research also uses network modeling to determine 'depressive mood' as a core symptom predicted by loneliness and lack of behavioral activation.
