Mood Disorders and Self-Defeating Behaviors pdf free download. Mood disorders lead to a variety of symptomatic self-defeating behaviors, many of which contribute to perpetuation of negative affect. The present chapter will examine these behaviors, but will also attempt to delineate what is known about the self-defeating behaviors that make people more vulnerable to mood disorders. The chapter will first examine the cognitive style of depressed persons and persons vulnerable to depression and will then explore the consequences of cognitive styles for physical health and performance in academic, job, social, and general life situations. Next, experimental studies of the effects of cognitions and mood on behavior will be reviewed.
