A Developmental Psychopathology Perspective on the Cognitive Components of Child and Adolescent Depression

  • Chapter
Handbook of Developmental Psychopathology

Abstract

Multiple pathways lead to the development of depression, and myriad factors account for its maintenance and recurrence. For some youth, cognitive factors are central to the development, maintenance, and/or recurrence of their depression (e.g., Asarnow & Bates, 1988); these youth are the primary focus of this chapter. Depressed youth, even those for whom cognitive factors are not the most salient component of their presentation, typically evidence cognitive correlates of their depression; therefore, this discussion is relevant to them as well. As Garber (1992) aptly points out, it is essential that attention be paid to examining the cognitivediathesis-stress models in children, rather than just focusing on the link between a specific cognitive process and depression. According to these models, individuals with a cognitive vulnerability to depression are most likely to evidence depression in the face of stress. This emphasis on cognitive-diathesis-stress models needs to incorporate a developmental perspective in order to ascertain the extent and nature to which there is a cognitive-diathesis x stress interaction in predicting depression for youth at different developmental stages.
