Key Points

The study aims to explore the comorbidity network of anxiety and depression in adolescents by considering both distal and proximal factors.
Utilized network analysis to examine the interaction between anxiety and depression symptoms.
Included childhood trauma as a distal factor influencing the network structure.
Considered PSNSU (a proximal factor) at the symptom level.
Found a transdiagnostic model linking anxiety and depression.
Demonstrated the significant role of childhood trauma in shaping symptom networks.

Implication

Network analysis reveals the comorbidity structure of anxiety and depression, indicating childhood trauma's impact on symptom levels.

Abstract

The present study found a transdiagnostic model for depression and anxiety by including childhood trauma as the distal factor and PSNSU as the proximal factor at the symptom level. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2026 APA, all rights reserved).
