Adolescents: A Multiple Rater twin
Study.
The largest treatment effects occurred in the older and / ormore severely depressed
adolescents, consistent with findings in the adultIPT literature.35 This finding suggests thatmilder
depression in younger
adolescents can be more easily treated with supportivepsychotherapy, whereas more severe
depression is more effectively treatedwith a structured treatment specifically targeted for
adolescent depression.The current findings extend treatment effects observed in carefully controlledclinical trials with depressed
adolescents17, 18 totreatment in school - based health clinics, and are an important first stepin the
study of the transportability
of treatments from the laboratory tothe clinic.

Although many treatment
studies do not report treatment attendance figures, these results compare favorably with those
of the Treatment for
Adolescents With
Depression Study, a well - known, highly controlled investigation in which approximately 82 %
of participants remained in their assigned treatment arm through 12 weeks
of acute treatment.50 There is potential for MF - PEP to be cost - effective since clinician time is maximized by having multiple participants in each session.
More recently, an RCT examining the effectiveness
of Stressbusters within a school setting was conducted.26 The

Many
studies looking at the adolescence — young adult
depression link have used highly selected or clinical samples and / or failed to account for common comorbid disorders.46 - 50 While these
studies can demonstrate that
adolescent depression precedes young adult
depression, they are insufficient, on their own, to provide evidence
of direct prediction.
The results
of the current
study with regards to gender differences in
adolescent DSH / SA are consistent with previous findings, in that
adolescent girls showed a higher prevalence
of DSH5 28 and SA.7 29 30 With respect to the personality characteristics, low self - esteem has been associated with both DSH4 and SA.29 Cross-sectional surveys
of adolescents have consistently found that
depression is strongly correlated with DSH4 5 and SA.29 30 Tobacco smoking has also been previously identified to be a risk factor for DSH5 31 and SA, 32 33 along with alcohol use for DSH5 28 31 and SA.32 33 When we analysed the data according to gender, we found that tobacco smoking and alcohol use were especially important risk factors for DSH / SA in girls (tables 2 and 3).
To bridge the knowledge gap, this prospective
study aims to examine the effect
of the pathological use
of the Internet on
adolescent mental health, including anxiety and
depression, using a noncase population.
An emerging body
of literature has suggested that generalized anxiety not only reliably precedes
depression,3,54 - 56 but vice versa.3 By disaggregating childhood and
adolescent diagnoses, the current
study found that this pattern was developmentally nuanced: only childhood
depression predicted young adult GAD and only
adolescent GAD predicted later
depression.
This is in line with findings from the New York Child Longitudinal
Study in which OAD predicted young adult
depression, social phobia, and generalized anxiety.3 Together, these findings suggest that the DSM - IV GAD criteria are insufficient for assessing the full range
of «generalized anxiety» in children and
adolescents and fail to identify anxious children at risk for a range
of later disorders.
The second
study tested this link in a birth cohort
of 1265 children and concluded that there was a «direct and specific» link from
adolescent depression to later
depression.51 The
study design provides a rather stringent test for the outcomes
of adolescent depression by accounting for the effects
of anxiety disorders, early cigarette smoking, CDs, alcohol abuse, and a range
of other putative risk factors.
Moreover, because this is a cohort
study, results provide further information on the effect
of pathological use
of the Internet on
adolescent mental health, particularly
depression, not just an association between the two.
It is difficult to compare our findings with
studies of general population youth because rates vary widely, depending on the sample, the method, the source
of data (participant or collaterals), and whether functional impairment was required for diagnosis.50 Despite these differences, our overall rates are substantially higher than the median rate reported in a major review article (15 %) 50 and other more recent investigations: the Great Smoky Mountains
Study (20.3 %), 56 the Virginia Twin
Study of Adolescent Behavioral Development (142 cases per 1000 persons), 57 the Methods for the Epidemiology
of Child and
Adolescent Mental Disorders (6.1 %), 32 and the Miami — Dade County Public School
Study (38 %).58 We are especially concerned about the high rates
of depression and dysthymia among detained youth (17.2 %
of males, 26.3 %
of females), which are also higher than general population rates.51,56 - 61 Depressive disorders are difficult to detect (and treat) in the chaos
of the corrections milieu.
This
study reported a substantial incidence rate
of depression in young
adolescents.
A self administered questionnaire was used to screen participants and gather data on demographic variables,

Studies were identified from the literature through electronic databases [PSYCINFO, MEDLINE, Google Scholar, PSNYDEX (an electronic data base
of psychological literature from German - speaking countries)-- search terms: (chronic illness or disability or aids or arthritis or asthma or cancer or cleft or chronic fatigue syndrome or cystic fibrosis or diabetes or fibromyalgia or hemophilia or hearing impairment or HIV or epilepsy or inflammatory bowel disease or migraine or rheumatism or sickle cell or spina bifida or visual impairment) and (children or

Adolescence is a critical period for the development
of depression with prevalence rates rising sharply from childhood to early adulthood.1 Many adult depressive disorders have their first onset in adolescence2 with longer episode duration being the strongest predictor
of future problems.3 In addition to increasing the risk
of later mental health problems,
adolescent depression is associated with significant educational and social impairment and is a major risk factor for suicide.1 Providing effective early interventions to shorten the duration
of episodes and potentially reduce the impact on later life is therefore important.3 This
study explores this question and compares the effects

As with homotypic patterns
of depression, the bivariate link between
adolescent CD and young adult
depression in our
study was entirely accounted for by comorbid disorders (here,
adolescent GAD, ODD, and substance disorders).
