Abstract
Findings revealed a relatively stable network structure of IA symptoms among college students and suggested that psychological distress, especially depressive symptoms, may play a central role in activating IA symptoms over time. These results provide evidence for understanding the directional relationship between the central characteristics of distress symptoms and IA. The study also underscores the importance of depressive symptoms in their co-occurrence with IA, indicating that the key and bridge symptoms identified in this study can be prioritized as targets for preventing and treating IA in Chinese youth. Through identification and early intervention of depressive symptoms, we may avoid the progression of co-occurring issues, leading to more effective treatment outcomes.
