Social and Emotional Competence in Children of Depressed Mothers.
Goodman, Sherryl H.; And Others
Child Development, v64 n2 p516-31 Apr 1993
Examined relationships between maternal depression and children's self-concept, self-control, and peer relationships. Found that multiple risk factors, such as the father's mental state and parents' marital status, rather than maternal depression alone, explained much of the variability in children's social and emotional competence.
