Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This quantitative study examines the relationship between interpersonal cognitive distortions, automatic negative thoughts, and depression among 200 college students using structural equation modeling. The results indicate significant correlations between depression and factors such as low self-esteem, helplessness, and negative self-concept, with the latter mediating the link between cognitive distortions and depressive symptoms. The resource is intended for researchers or clinicians interested in the cognitive mechanisms underlying depression in young adult populations.
