Gunlicks, Meredith L.; Weissman, Myrna M.
Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, v47 n4 p379-389 Apr 2008
The article identifies and evaluates the current research evidence of associations between improvement in parents' depression and their children's psychopathology. Findings indicate some evidence of associations between successful treatment of parents' depression and improvement in children's symptoms and functioning but further studies on these lines need to be undertaken.
