TY - JOUR PY - 2014// TI - Toward an integration of interpersonal risk models of depression and cognitive‐behaviour therapy JO - Australian psychologist A1 - Dobson, Keith S. A1 - Quigley, Leanne A1 - Dozois, David Ja SP - 328 EP - 336 VL - 49 IS - 6 N2 - Empirical research has increasingly focused on interpersonal variables associated with the development and maintenance of depression. This article outlines some key interpersonal risk factors for depression, including anxious attachment, sociotropy, excessive reassurance seeking, interpersonal stress generation, reduced social support, social skills deficits, and social avoidance. Recommendations are made for how cognitive‐behavioural therapy may be adapted to address such factors. Specifically, suggestions are offered for how cognitive and behavioural interventions, such as cognitive restructuring, behavioural activation, behavioural experiments, and skills training, may be used with depressed clients to promote positive relationships and reduce maladaptive interpersonal behaviours.
