Dysphoric Adolescents as Young Adults: A Prospective Study of the Psychological Sequelae of Depressed Mood in Adolescence.
Gjerde, Per F.; Westenberg, P. Michiel
Journal of Research on Adolescence, v8 n3 p377-402 1998
Evaluated the longitudinal implications of age-18 dysphoric mood in 23-year olds using a multidata, multi informant design. Findings indicated that adolescent dysphoric mood was an important predictor of psychological distress in young adults, especially in young adult women, for whom the prospective correlations of adolescent dysphoria were more independent of prior anxiety and IQ than in young adult men.
