}Adolescence is a crucial developmental window because it involves elaboration of the self‐concept, the laying down of lifelong autobiographical memories, and the development of emotional resilience during a time of substantial risk for mood problems. Autobiographical memory retrieval plays an important role in depression both in adults (van Vreeswijk & de Wilde, 2004) and adolescents (Kuyken, Howell, & Dalgleish, 2005; Park, Goodyer, & Teasdale, 2002). This study examined facets of…

Overgeneral autobiographical memory in adolescents at risk for depression

Two studies show that risk for depression is associated with a greater tendency to retrieve categoric memories to negative cue words and suggest that autobiographical retrieval may be implicated in onset of depression in adolescence.
Remembering as an observer: How is autobiographical memory retrieval vantage perspective linked to depression?
- PsychologyMemory
- 2009
The tendency to retrieve observer perspective memories was associated with greater negative self-evaluation, lower dispositional mindfulness, and greater use of avoidance, and participants who recalled more field perspective memories at pre- treatment had lower levels of post-treatment depression, controlling for pre-treatment levels of depression and trait rumination.

The data suggest the existence of substantial connections between perspective taking during recall and interpersonal difficulties and anxious-neurotic symptoms on the other hand, especially following cues that tap into domains that are highly discrepant towards one’s actual self-concept.

Dysphoric students show higher use of the observer perspective in their retrieval of positive versus negative autobiographical memories

Comparisons with non-dysphoric individuals revealed that dysphoric students used an observer perspective more for positive memories compared with negative memories, but not for negative memories.
Do depressive symptoms and subjective well-being influence the valence or visual perspective of autobiographical memories in young adults?

It is found that the valence of neutral cued memories were significantly negatively associated with depressive symptoms and negative affect, and significantly positively associated with life satisfaction, even after controlling for current mood.

Higher levels of trauma were shown to be associated with reduced autobiographical memory specificity (AM), which is reconcilable with Williams' (1996) developmental idea that a pattern of overgeneral AM retrieval originates in childhood trauma as a way of regulating affect.

The results suggest that rumination has a deleterious effect on mood and memory retrieval processes in adolescents with first episode Major Depressive Disorder, and imply that strategies to interrupt ruminative processes may be helpful in minimising persistence of first episode MDD in adolescence.
