A total of 2059 adolescents participated and were administered the PHQ 9. Through network analysis, it was found that the central symptoms of depression were depressed mood and fatigue followed by loss of interest. A greater interaction between symptoms was found in the female group. It is concluded that the main symptoms of depression in both adolescent males and females were depressed mood, fatigue or loss of energy and anhedonia. Although no significant differences were found, the first two symptoms seem to have more centrality in males, while anhedonia had more centrality in females. La presente investigación, con diseño asociativo y transversal, tuvo como objetivo principal explorar las relaciones entre los síntomas de depresión en adolescentes peruanos durante la pandemia e identificar cuál de ellos es el con mayor centralidad según el sexo. Participaron 2059 adolescentes a quienes se les administró el PHQ-9. Mediante análisis de redes se encontró que los síntomas centrales fueron el ánimo deprimido y la fatiga seguido de la pérdida del interés. Se encontró mayor interacción entre los síntomas en el grupo de mujeres. Se concluye que los principales síntomas de depresión, tanto en hombres como en mujeres adolescentes, fueron el ánimo decaído, la fatiga o pérdida de energía y la anhedonia. Aunque no se hallaron diferencias significativas en la estructura de la red ni en sus interconexiones, los dos primeros síntomas parecen tener más centralidad en hombres, mientras que la anhedonia tuvo más centralidad en mujeres.
