Commentary: "Treatment Is Not Enough
Abstract
made a compelling argument for making depression prevention in women a national priority. They noted the limited amount of research on depression prevention and emphasized the need for growth in this area. We discuss several issues in our commentary that deserve further thought and consideration. Given the high prevalence of depression and the prevalence of associated psychosocial and economic risk factors (e.g., poverty, stress), we question whether universal prevention efforts are appropriate. We also note that social, economic, and political factors likely influence women's risk for depression. A major challenge of future prevention research in this area will be to incorporate other disciplines in the task of understanding the relationships among these factors. Gaining a better conceptual understanding of the nature of these complex relationships will enable us to develop better risk profiles and to develop conceptual models that will be flexible enough to incorporate the diversity in women's gender socialization, educational and economic status, racial and ethnic identity, acculturation, and so forth.Preview Only.
