Book Description
The purpose of the current study was to further the literature on attributional style and depression by considering the role of two positive elements as protective factors (i.e., self-esteem and enhancing attributional style for positive events) in a model of depression focused on early adolescence with a consideration for gender differences. The two theories guiding this investigation are the integrated hopelessness self-esteem theory of depression (Metalsky, Joiner, Hardin, & Abramson, 1993) and the recovery model (Needles & Abramson, 1990). Attributional style for positive events, depression, and self-esteem were assessed in a sample of 477 7th and 8th graders twice over a 4-month period. Results indicate significant correlations between attributional style and self- esteem, as well as significant correlations between atttributional style and depression for both boys and girls, although the correlation was stronger for girls. The results also indicate a significant correlation between self-esteem and depression for both boys and girls. In the test of separate models, moderation was not supported. Results of the mediation analysis indicate mediation of self-esteem in the relationship between attributional style for positive events and depression for girls, boys, and the full sample. Keywords: attributional style, depression, self-esteem, integrated theory, recovery model.

The Posttraumatic Self
Author: John P. Wilson
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135416273
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 514
Book Description
Filling a gap that exists in most traumatology literature, The Posttraumatic Self provides an optimistic analysis of the aftermath of a traumatic event. This work appreciates the potentially positive effects of trauma and links those effects to the discovery of one's identity, character, and purpose. Wilson and his distinguished contributors explore the nature and dynamics of the posttraumatic self, emphasising human resilience and prompting continued optimal functioning. While taking into consideration pathological consquences such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), the authors study the impacts a traumatic event can have on one's inner self, and they help the victims transform such an event into healthy self-transcendent lifecycles. The Posttraumatic Self will help victims and healers transform the way they deal with the complexities of trauma by making important connections that will allow for healing and growth.

Stress and Well-being
Author: Hsiao-Fang Huang
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Depression, Mental
Languages : en
Pages : 84
Book Description
Depression has been one of the most prevalent psychological disorders. Its relationship with life events is reviewed in light of factors influencing the relationship such as self-esteem, attributional styles, and cognitive complexity. The mechanism of depression and its links with personality disorders are looked at in relation to anxiety. The role of self-awareness in therapy is discussed along with the dynamic of change and the emotion component in psychoanalytic, Adlerian, existential, gestalt, person-centered, and cognitive psychotherapies. In addition, self-awareness is also highlighted in terms of hardiness, openness to experience, and a sense of salvation. A survey was conducted focused on the relationship between stress and well-being. Self-esteem, self-efficacy, rumination, reflection, and religion were examined as possible moderators or mediators of the relation between life events and well-being in predominantly white female college students. Life events were analyzed in terms of perceived stressfulness, objective severity of events, and controllability of events. Well-being was measured as depression, total symptoms, and life satisfaction. Self-esteem was found to buffer the negative impact of life events. Self-efficacy, on the other hand, created a susceptibility to their negative impact. Reflection buffered the negative effect of rumination on life satisfaction. Religion was also found to moderate the relationship between events and well-being. Self-esteem and rumination mediated this relationship. Limitations of the present study and suggestions for future research are discussed.
