Previous studies have suggested that MCA is associated with less vulnerability to depression in clinical samples. However, there is little research on whether MCA maintains or improves mental health in non-clinical populations. Therefore, a three-wave, longitudinal study was conducted to investigate the effects of MCA on depressive symptoms in female college freshmen. The results indicated that participants with higher MCA, in comparison to those with lower MCA, had less stressors during four- and nine-month periods after entering a college, which in turn resulted in less depressive symptoms. These results suggest that MCA provides beneficial effects on the mental health of non-clinical populations, in addition to the beneficial effects on clinical populations., 金沢大学人間社会研究域人間科学系}, pages = {28--37}, title = {女子大学新入生を対象としたメタ認知的知覚がもたらす抑うつ低減効果: ストレッサーの軽減による媒介モデル}, volume = {26}, year = {2013} }
