Abstract: Based on the Actor-partner Interdependence Model (APIM), this study explores the actor effects and partner effects of marital satisfaction on depressive symptoms in elderly Chinese couples, and the moderating effects of relevant variables on the actor effects. The results show that marital satisfaction of elderly couples has a significant negative impact on their own depressive symptoms. The lower the marital satisfaction, the higher the risk of depression, demonstrating the existence of the actor effects. In terms of partner effects, the marital satisfaction of elderly couples also has a significant negative impact on the depressive symptoms of their spouse's depressive symptoms. Parent-child relationship satisfaction can effectively alleviate the risk of depression caused by marital dissatisfaction. There are gender differences in the moderating effects of social interaction between marital satisfaction and depressive symptoms. When both parent-child relationship satisfaction and social interaction are included in the basic model, the moderating effects of social interaction change significantly. In addition, there are marked socio-demographic differentials in the effects of marital satisfaction on depressive symptoms.

摘要： 基于主体-伴侣相互依赖模型（APIM），探讨中国老年夫妻的婚姻满意度对抑郁症状影响的主体效应和伴侣效应，以及相关变量对主体效应的调节作用。研究发现，老年夫妻的婚姻满意度对自身的抑郁症状具有显著负向影响，婚姻满意度越低，自身患抑郁的风险越高，即主体效应存在；老年夫妻的婚姻满意度对配偶的抑郁症状也具有显著负向影响，即伴侣效应存在；亲子关系满意度可以有效缓解夫妻自身因婚姻不满意导致的抑郁风险；社会交往活动在婚姻满意度和抑郁症状之间的调节效应存在性别差异；将亲子关系满意度、社会交往活动同时置于基础模型中，社会交往活动的调节效应发生明显变化。此外，在“婚姻满意度→抑郁症状”路径中各种效应呈现出差异化的人口学特征。
