Abstract
Compared two primary induction methods that have cognitive bases, Autobiographical Recollections and Structured Sets of Mood Statements, by assessing their effectiveness in inducing depression and elation moods, respectively. Eighty-three male and 123 female undergraduate college students were assigned randomly to 1 of 15 groups. Each person who participated in the experiment received a depression-related induction or a control followed by an elation-related induction or a control. The effects of each induction were measured by three independent variables: Two depression measures and one anxiety measure. Results generally confirmed hypotheses made by the E that Autobiographical Recollections was the superior method for inducing and altering depression and anxiety in a population that included both sexes.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
