In the context of a project examining depression vulnerability and cigarette smoking, the authors tested whether depression-vulnerable people differed from less vulnerable people in their reactions to a depressive stimulus. Regular smokers with a history of depression but not currently depressed (n = 63) and never-depressed smokers (n = 64) listened to audiotapes of confederates reading depressive and nondepressive scripts and reported their reactions. Neither a history of depression nor self-reported depression proneness predicted reactions to depression. However, depression proneness was positively correlated with beliefs about depression contagion. Likewise, stronger depression-related contagion beliefs and lower levels of empathic responding predicted behavioral rejection of the depressive stimulus.
在一个研究抑郁症易感性与吸烟行为的项目背景下，作者测试了抑郁症易感人群与较不易感人群在面对抑郁刺激时的反应是否存在差异。有抑郁症病史但当前未患抑郁症的经常吸烟者（n = 63）和从未患过抑郁症的吸烟者（n = 64）收听了同盟者朗读抑郁和非抑郁脚本的录音带，并报告了他们的反应。抑郁症病史和自我报告的抑郁倾向均无法预测对抑郁的反应。然而，抑郁倾向与对抑郁症传染性的信念呈正相关。同样，更强的与抑郁症相关的传染性信念和更低水平的共情反应预示着对抑郁刺激的行为排斥。
