Results: ①0; There was a significant positive correlation between family intimacy and psychological resilience in adolescents with depressive disorders (r = 0.456, P < 0.01); ①1; There was a significant negative correlation between negative emotions and psychological resilience in adolescents with depressive disorders (r = -0.543, P < 0.01); ①2; There was a significant negative correlation between negative emotions and family intimacy in adolescents with depressive disorders (r = -0.260, P < 0.01); ①3; Negative emotions in adolescents with depressive disorders not only had a significant negative predictive effect on psychological resilience (β = -0.878, t = -9.445, P < 0.001), but also had a significant negative predictive effect on psychological resilience through family intimacy (β = -0.736, t = -8.275, P < 0.001) Negative emotions in adolescents with depressive disorders had a significant negative predictive effect on family intimacy (β = -0.338, t = -3.936, P < 0.001); ①4; Family intimacy played a partial mediating role between negative emotions and psychological resilience, and the mediating effect accounted for 16.17% of the total effect.
