This study examined the generalizability of cognitive models of depression to adolescents and explored developmental differences with regard to depressotypic cognitions. Self-reported depressive symptoms and various hypothesized cognitive correlates (e.g., automatic thoughts, attributions, dysfunctional attitudes) were investigated in a sample of 688 adolescents in grades 7 through 12. Measures of normative adolescent cognitions (e.g., egocentrism, self-consciousness) also were included. There was a strong association between negative thinking and depression in adolescents. There was no association between depressogenic thinking and age, nor did the strength of the association between negative cognitions and depression vary from early to middle adolescence. Finally, negative cognitions were associated with self-report measures of both depressive and anxious symptoms.
本研究检验了抑郁症认知模型对青少年的适用性，并探讨了抑郁型认知方面的发展差异。在一个由688名7至12年级青少年组成的样本中，对自我报告的抑郁症状以及各种假设的认知相关因素（如自动思维、归因、功能失调性态度）进行了调查。还纳入了青少年规范性认知的测量指标（如自我中心主义、自我意识）。青少年的消极思维与抑郁之间存在很强的关联。抑郁性思维与年龄之间没有关联，消极认知与抑郁之间的关联强度在青春期早期到中期也没有变化。最后，消极认知与抑郁症状和焦虑症状的自我报告测量指标均相关。
