Summary

This research study is the continuation of a study started more than 20 years ago. The study was designed to explore the effect that depressed parents have on their children and to better understand the factors that contribute to depression development and maintenance.

In addition, the study will continue looking at the processes responsible for the development of children of parents with and without affective (mood) disorders.
