  • Title: Depressive mood in female college students: father-daughter interactional patterns.
    Author: Brook JS, Whiteman M, Brook DW, Gordon AS.
    Journal: J Genet Psychol; 1988 Dec; 149(4):485-504. PubMed ID: 3235978.
    Abstract:
    The interrelationship of sets of father and daughter factors in explaining depressive mood in normal female adolescents was examined. Separate questionnaires were given to 403 college students and their fathers. A mediational model was found, in which two sets of paternal variables were related to the daughter personality set, which in turn was related to her depressive mood. In addition, protective personality attributes of the daughter served both to offset the impact of paternal risk factors and to further strengthen paternal protective factors to reduce frequency of depressive mood. Comparisons are made with an earlier study of sons' depressive mood (Brook, Brook, Whiteman, & Gordon, 1983).
