Abstract in brief

  • Childhood emotional neglect, characterized by lack of parental attention, increases the risk of depression in late adolescence, but having strong peer support at age 15 can help reduce this risk.
  • The study found that while emotional neglect is linked to more depressive symptoms at 18, peer social support is associated with fewer symptoms overall, though it doesn't specifically change the impact of neglect.
  • Promoting supportive friendships during adolescence could serve as a protective factor to help all youths, especially those with a history of childhood emotional neglect, in lowering their chances of developing depression later on.
