Abstract

To investigate the effect of mothers' education level on depressive symptoms in childhood and adolescence, this study was based on data from the 2018 China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) with children and adolescents aged 9-15 years old, and was conducted using SPSS for binary logistic and AMOS software for mediated effects analysis. The results showed that children's depression score (3.76±3.11) was lower than that of adolescents' (4.09±3.17), with a statistically significant difference (p=0.009). Mother's education level (OR=0.341, 95% CI:0.125-0.931) was a protective factor for depression in children, and the mediating effect of children's educational expectations was significant between the both, and mother's education level had no effect on depression in adolescents.
