    Notes: Abstract The present study examined the influence(s) of race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and substance abuse on depressive symptomatology in a sample of African-American, Dominican, Irish-American, and Puerto Rican women of child-bearing age. While the initial analyses indicated ethnic differences in depressive symptomatology, these differences, with the exception of the difference observed in positive affect, disappeared when socioeconomic status and substance use were controlled. Thus the observed differences between the four groups of women in overall CES-D scores, somatic complaints and negative affect resulted, in large measure, from the divergent socioeconomic circumstances of the four groups.

    Notes: Abstract A prospective study was conducted to investigate whether event-specific attributions, either alone or in interaction with daily life events predict depression symptom change, and whether this is affected by systematic variation in intertest intervals. Baseline measures of attributional style, event-specific attributions, life events, and depression were administered to 96 adults enrolled in a cigarette-smoking cessation program who were readministered the event-specific attributions, life events, and depression measures 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks later. Results indicated that (a) the interaction between event-specific attributions and life events was a better predictor of depression symptom change than were event-specific attributions alone; (b) event-specific attributions and life events demonstrated a tendency to predict depression symptom change over 2 and 4 weeks but not over 6 and 8 weeks; (c) the stability and globality of event-specific attributions was associated with the number of reported life events; and (d) baseline attributional style predicted event-specific attributions 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks later.

    Notes: Abstract Family and contextual predictors of depression in inner-city, African American youth have rarely been examined. In this study we explore the contribution of current and historical life events, family conflict, perceived social support from mother, maternal depression, and maternal explanatory style to the depressive symptoms of inner-city African American school-age (M = 10.7 years) children. Home interviews were conducted with 89 mother and child dyads living in moderate- to high-violent areas of a southeastern city. Regression analyses revealed that the children in this sample with higher levels of depressive symptoms had higher levels of child-reported everyday stress, were more likely to have been abused at some point in their past, came from homes with mothers who were less well educated, and had mothers who reported higher levels of depression, a past history of domestic abuse, as well as a less pessimistic explanatory style. Implications for interventions with inner-city African American families are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract A study was conducted to investigate whether or not the relationship between attributional style, daily life events or “hassles,” and hopelessness depression is mediated by gender and mood at the time when attributional style is assessed. Measures of attributional style, hassles, depression, and hopelessness were administered, in a prospective design, to 100 undergraduate students on two occasions separated by 1 month. Results showed that the interaction of attributional style, hassles, and gender predicted change in hopelessness levels (p 〈.05) and that this interaction demonstrated a nonsignificant trend toward predicting change in depression symptom levels (p =.07). The interaction of attributional style, hassles, and time 1 depression scores also demonstrated a nonsignificant trend toward predicting change in depression symptom levels (p =.08), but did not predict change in hopelessness levels. The interaction of attributional style and hassles did not, by itself, predict change in either depression or hopelessness levels. These findings suggest that research investigating relationships between causal attributions for negative life events and depression should consider the potential influences of gender and of mood at the time when causal attributions are assessed.

    Notes: Abstract Self-focused attention has been related to a number of both normal and dysfunctional processes. Several recent studies have suggested that the dispositional equivalent of self-focused attention, private self-consciousness, may serve as a vulnerability factor for emotional distress. To test this proposition, two studies were conducted. In the first, individuals high and low in chronic self-focus were provided with either success or failure feedback, and reactions to this feedback on several cognitive and affective variables were assessed. Results indicated that chronically self-focused individuals responded with significantly more negative affect, dysfunctional negative thoughts, and less self-deception. In the second study, a naturalistic experiment was conducted where chronically self-focused subjects were assessed weekly over a 10-week period to determine if they encountered more negative affect than a non-self-focused comparison group. Although self-focused and non-self-focused subjects started out with equal levels of negative emotion, self-focused subjects reported reliably higher levels of negative affect during the last two-thirds of the assessment period. Results from both studies are discussed in terms of implications of the vulnerability of individuals who are typically high in internal attention.
