Abstract | Examines the association between depressive symptoms and decision coping patterns among a nonreferred, nonclinical community sample of African American adolescents. Found a significant association between depressive symptomatology and the use of maladaptive decision coping patterns. Inferred that increasing competence in decision making may have beneficial effects on overall mood and depressive symptoms among children and adolescents. (Author/SD) |
