摘要
This study examined whether social support moderates the relation between peer victimization and depressive symptoms in children who are obese. Participants were 96 children 8 to 17 years of age (M = 12.8, SD = 1.8) attending a pediatric obesity clinic. Children completed self-report measures. Results indicated that for obese girls peer social support significantly moderated the association between peer victimization and depression, but this result was not found for obese boys. Partial support was found that peer social support buffered the relation between peer victimization and depressive symptoms in obese children. However, important gender differences were found.
