Abstract

We tested the cognitive vulnerability from hopelessness theory of depression for specificity in predicting depression compared with anxiety. In the study, we sought to provide a more rigorous prospective test of cognitive vulnerability-stress model with a long-term(3 months) longitudinal data from female employees. Results showed that negative events were the general risk factors for both anxiety and depression. Cognitive vulnerability for depression interacted with negative events to predict future hopelessness depression specifically but not anxiety. These results suggest that depressed women were more likely than nondepressed women (1)to attribute negative events to global and stable causes (2)to perceive negative events as having many disastrous consequences, and (3)to view themselves as flawed or deficient after the occurrence of negative events. The clinical implications and limitations of this study were also discussed.
