Abstract
Recent conceptualizations of depression have focused on the quality of the interactions between depressed individuals and others, and on the role these interactions may play in maintaining or exacerbating the depression. The behavior of depressives is hypothesized to engender negative affect and hostility in those with whom they interact. Although the behavior of depressives undoubtedly exerts a strong influence on nondepressed others, research from the areas of social cognition and person perception suggests that the cognitive representations nondepressed individuals routinely use to organize their perceptions of others also exert a strong influence on their interpersonal behavior. Further insight into the interpersonal sequence hypothesized to maintain depression may be obtained, therefore, by examining the cognitive representations people use to organize their impressions of others and the effects these structures have on subsequent interactions. The present paper integrates research from the areas of ...
期刊介绍:
An excellent resource for researchers as well as students, Social Cognition features reports on empirical research, self-perception, self-concept, social neuroscience, person-memory integration, social schemata, the development of social cognition, and the role of affect in memory and perception. Three broad concerns define the scope of the journal: - The processes underlying the perception, memory, and judgment of social stimuli - The effects of social, cultural, and affective factors on the processing of information The behavioral and interpersonal consequences of cognitive processes.
