With clear implications for #prevention of #MDD, this study shows that having an external locus of control and holding negative cognitive styles in mid- to late adolescence increases the risk of depression in young adulthood. https://t.co/quh564sIch

@MCGeoffroy A relevant reflection while preparing our piece for the Conversation: Unis want research shared widely. So why don't they properly back academics to do it? https://t.co/LcnkWmb6ga via @ConversationEDU
