Abstract
El propósito de este capítulo es presentar una revisión general de la investigación contemporánea en los mecanismos cognitivos de la depresión y sus líneas futuras de desarrollo, haciendo especial hincapié en las investigaciones que tratan de dilucidar si los constructos cognitivos propuestos con causa o consecuencia de la depresión. Con el fin de ordenar la amplia diversidad de constructos cognitivos propuestas en la literatura científica, así como el conocimiento empírico que pretende respaldarlos, se utiliza el sistema taxonómico cognitivo propuesto por Ingram, que distingue cuatro categorías cognitivas: estructuras, proposiciones, operaciones y productos cognitivos. Entre estos últimos, se revisa la literatura empírica sobre las inferencias, incluidas las atribuciones causales, las adscripciones de atributos y las predicciones, y los pensamientos automáticos. Entre las operaciones cognitivas, se revisa la literatura empírica sobre los procesos de codificación y recuperación (memoria), los procesos de atención selectiva y la atención autofocalizada. Entre las proposiciones y estructuras cognitivas, se revisa la literatura empírica sobre, respectivamente, las actitudes disfuncionales y los autoesquemas depresivos. Finalmente, se resumen ocho líneas de investigación que probablemente marquen las líneas maestras de los estudios psicológicos sobre la depresión.
The purpose of this chapter is to present a general review of contemporary research on the cognitive mechanisms of depression and its future lines of development, placing special emphasis on research that tries to elucidate whether the proposed cognitive constructs are a cause or consequence of depression. . In order to organize the wide diversity of cognitive constructs proposed in the scientific literature, as well as the empirical knowledge that aims to support them, the cognitive taxonomic system proposed by Ingram is used, which distinguishes four cognitive categories: structures, propositions, operations and cognitive products. Among the latter, the empirical literature on inferences, including causal attributions, attribute ascriptions and predictions, and automatic thoughts is reviewed. Among cognitive operations, the empirical literature on encoding and retrieval processes (memory), selective attention processes, and self-focused attention is reviewed. Among the propositions and cognitive structures, the empirical literature on, respectively, dysfunctional attitudes and depressive self-schemas is reviewed. Finally, eight lines of research are summarized that probably mark the guidelines of psychological studies on depression.
