Adolescent Depressed Mood and Parental Unhappiness.

Lasko, David S.; And Others

Adolescence, v31 n121 p49-57 Spr 1996

A set of self-report scales on depression, parental happiness, intimacy, social support, self-esteem, and risk-taking behavior was administered to 455 adolescents to determine the role of depression with the other variables. Depressed adolescents were found to be less intimate with parents, felt less social support, and had lower self-esteem. Adolescents who perceived their parents as unhappy had similar feelings. (KW)
