  • Title: Implicit and explicit self-esteem in currently depressed individuals with and without suicidal ideation.
    Author: Franck E, De Raedt R, Dereu M, Van den Abbeele D.
    Journal: J Behav Ther Exp Psychiatry; 2007 Mar; 38(1):75-85. PubMed ID: 16828702.
    Abstract:
    In the present study, we have further explored implicit self-esteem in currently depressed individuals. Since suicidal ideation is associated with lower self-esteem in depressed individuals, we measured both implicit and explicit self-esteem in a population of currently depressed (CD) individuals, with and without suicidal ideation (SI), and in a group of non-depressed controls (ND). The results indicate that only CD individuals with SI show a discrepancy between their implicit and explicit self-esteem: that is, they exhibit high implicit and low explicit self-esteem. CD individuals without SI exhibit both low implicit and low explicit self-esteem; and ND controls exhibit both normal implicit and normal explicit self-esteem. These results provide new insights in the study of implicit self-esteem and the combination of implicit and explicit self-esteem in depression.
