Lewinsohn et al., (1985, 1998) note that a theory of depression should explain the following: 1. Behavioral and cognitive changes 2. Common causes of depression 11 Theory of Depression 3. Gender differences 12 13 Theory of Depression Desiree Navarro/ Getty Images 4. Depressive episodes self-terminate. 5. Stressful events often precede depression. 6.
