Abstract
The main aim of this lecture is focus on different aspects of occurerence of depression in Adolescence, especially with focus on risk factors. I introduced epidemiology of depression : causes, treatment, and prevention (Abela & Hankin,2008). The special part of the lecture was focus on etiology of depression. Adolescence is characterized by positive gains in cognitive maturity, better interpersonal skills, new experiences, increased autonomy, and hormonal changes (Feldman & Elliot, 1990). Although these normative transitions can provide opportunities for further growth in cognitive, physical, psychological, and social domains, exposure to adverse experiences (e.g., peer pressure, difficulties in school performance, loss of a romantic relationship), can placed adolescents at increased risk for the onset of a wide range of emotional an behavioural problems including the development of depressive symptoms (Steinberg, 2006). During the lecture different approaches were discussed (Theories of Cognitive vulnerabilities; A Developmental Perspective on Interpersonal Theories; Biological Vulnerability to Depression; New Behavioral Genetic Approaches to Depression in Adolescence). Than review of research with focus on risk factors of depression occurrence in adolescence in world and Serbia and Macedonia were discussed. Special part of the lecture was focus on subclinical depression.
Key words: depression; adolescence; risk factors; etiology.
