Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the adolescents' depressive symptom patterns in relation with their level of proactive coping and self-perceived success in the academic domain. 100 adolescents, aged 17 - 19 years (M = 17.97, SD =.43), 41 male and 59 female students participated in the study. Data were collected with three self-report scales. The results revealed that the relations between the variables and those patterns of depressive symptoms were differentiated by the interaction between adolescents' gender, level of proactive coping and of self-perceived success in the academic domain. The results can be included in adolescents' trainings and in activities that prevent the adolescents' depression.
