This study tested an integrated interpersonal theory of depression, which combines J. C. Coyne's (1976b) interpersonal theory of depression with work on the interplay between self-enhancement and self-consistency theory. Students' (targets') and their same-gender roommates' appraisals of each other, depression and anxiety levels, reassurance seeking, and negative feedback seeking were assessed at Time 1 (T1), and again at Time 2 (T2), 3 weeks later. Consistent with the theoretical integration (a) Depressed targets reported engaging in more negative feedback seeking than nondepressed targets, and tended to report seeking more reassurance than nondepressed targets at T1; (b) For male (but not female) targets, the combination of negative feedback seeking, high reassurance seeking, and depression at T1 predicted T1 to T2 increases in rejection by roommates; and (c) Rejection effects applied to depressive symptoms, but not anxious symptoms or anhedonic mood.
本研究检验了一种综合的抑郁症人际理论，该理论将J. C. 科因（1976b）的抑郁症人际理论与自我提升和自我一致性理论之间相互作用的研究相结合。在第1时间点（T1）评估了学生（目标对象）及其同性室友对彼此的评价、抑郁和焦虑水平、寻求安慰以及寻求负面反馈的情况，3周后的第2时间点（T2）再次进行了评估。与理论整合一致的是：（a）抑郁的目标对象报告称，与非抑郁的目标对象相比，他们寻求更多的负面反馈，并且在T1时倾向于报告寻求更多的安慰；（b）对于男性（而非女性）目标对象，T1时寻求负面反馈、高度寻求安慰和抑郁的综合情况预示着室友从T1到T2的拒绝增加；（c）拒绝效应适用于抑郁症状，但不适用于焦虑症状或快感缺失情绪。
