In families that included a chemically addicted father, the nonsubstance abusing mother was assessed using the Brief Symptom Inventory and her children were assessed for depression using the Children's Depression Inventory. The nonsubstance-abusing mothers were psychologically distressed and their distress correlated (positively for girls and negatively for boys) with their children's depression.

Children Of Substance Abusers

A factor analytic study of scores obtained on the Children's Depression Inventory from a sample of 202 young children ( M = 7.5 yr., SD = 2.2) of alcoholics and substance abusers was completed. A principal components factor analysis with an oblique rotation yielded five separate factors related to Negative Self-concept, Acting-out, Somatic/Disturbed Symptoms, Mood, and Hopelessness. In previous factor analytic studies of the Children's Depression Inventory with normal and clinical populations the primary factor obtained was formed by mood-related items. In contrast, the primary factor of the present analysis was formed by items concerning perceptions of self-concept, not mood. These results corroborated previously reported data from the Child Behavior Checklist suggesting that the depressive symptoms displayed by children of substance abusers are related to self-concept and externalization.

Resumo Objetivo Identificar os principais indicadores de depressão de amostra de adolescentes em vulnerabilidade social e associar com variáveis sociodemográficas e comportamentais. Método: A amostra foi composta por 135 adolescentes em vulnerabilidade social de Florianópolis, Santa Catarina. Indicadores de depressão foram investigados por meio do Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI). Para comparação entre os sexos, utilizou-se o teste U de Mann-Whitney. Com o objetivo de identificar os fatores de agrupamento entre os sintomas depressivos, recorreu-se à análise fatorial com rotação ortogonal varimax normalized. Além disso, a Regressão de Poisson foi utilizada no sentido de identificar as razões de prevalências, tendo como variável desfecho o tercil superior da pontuação do CDI. Resultados: Os indicadores “perda ou ganho de peso”, “baixa autoestima” e “fadiga” apresentaram maior poder explicativo dos escores do CDI. Os meninos atingiram maior pontuação média (24,9 pontos). Os índices do CDI foram altos independentemente de questões sociodemográficas, como etnia, e comportamentais, tempo em frente à televisão e ao computador ou videogame. Conclusão: Foram observadas altas prevalências de sintomatologia depressiva nos adolescentes em situação de vulnerabilidade social, com destaque para os meninos, que possuíram 2,24 vezes maior probabilidade de apresentar pontuação elevada no CDI em comparação às meninas.

Children’S Depression

Se administró a seiscientos estudiantes de 11 a 17 años de nivel socio-económico medio-bajo de un liceo público del Montevideo suburbano, el Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI, Kovacs)  tomado de la traducción y validación españolas y factorizado y validado en Uruguay por estos autores con propiedades psicométricas mayoritariamente satisfactorias. La prevalencia de la depresión alcanzó un 15% de la muestra. Con respecto al género, se confirmaron puntuaciones más altas en las chicas  en la  Puntuación Global y las dimensiones identificadas.  Solamente el factor Ineficacia se presenta  independiente del género sugiriendo una problemática adolescente  específica. La depresión evoluciona dependiendo del género y  aumenta significativamente con la edad consistentemente  con parte de la literatura que destaca  un incremento en la población femenina posterior a los 12 años. Aunque no hay diferencia ínter género en los estudiantes no deprimidos, entre los moderados y severamente deprimidos, las chicas son el doble de los varones con variaciones por factor.
