Risk Factors for Depressive Symptomatology in a Drug Using Population.
Buckner, John C.; And Others
American Journal of Public Health, v80 n5 p580-85 May 1990
Examines the effects of variables associated with the onset of a depressive episode on a group of 942 psychoactive drug-using young adults. Finds that controls were free of depressive symptoms but that methaqualone users were more prone to a depressed mood, lower self-esteem, and negative life events than nonusers. (FMW)
