First sentence: Cognitive models of depression have focused on information processing biases (Beck, Rush, Shaw, &amp; Emery, 1979), negative explanatory style (Abramson, Seligman, &amp; Teasdale, 1978), the perception of noncontingency (Seligman, 1975), deficits in self-regulation and self-control (Rehm, 1990), and excessive self-focus (Carver &amp; Scheier, 1990; Nolen-Hoeksema, 1987).
