and how it may be a genetic or environmental consequence. The

depression, the psychosocial risk factors, the science behind
depression and it also speaks of the resilience. Most importantly
to the research of this paper, it speaks about detection and
diagnosis as well as treatment and prevention.
The risk of suicide and how the adolescent functions at home
and school should be assessed. Possible warning signs include a
decline in academic achievement or engagement in leisure
activities, changes in peer and family relationships, and social
withdrawal. The best strategy for clinical assessment by non-
specialists has yet to be determined.

The author approaches the material to inform the public. It is not
over complicated, it is straight and to the point. She seems to be
only concerned with stating the facts and informing people of the
dramatic change in our countrys youth. There doesnt seem to
be a bias in this document, other than the fact that she believes
that there needs to be a change.

This article focuses on how to respond to a students depression.
It gives an example of a student, Rita, and talks abut what
behaviors she is displaying and how it might effect her and those
around her. This article has a chart that shows the behaviors
associated with children with depression and it translates them to
specific behaviors you might see in the classroom as a teacher.
This article touches on helping students with depression, and
how to do that like having a trusted teacher the child can confide
in. It encourages teachers to create a differentiated way of
teaching to help with everything the student might be going
through. It encourages teachers to promote social interaction, to
contact the students family and to confront the issue.

Depression is significantly correlated with poor academic grades, and
students with higher ratings of depression are less likely to graduate
from high school (Forehand, Brody, Long, & Fauber, 1988). Cognitive
issues may include low tolerance for frustration and negative patterns
of thinking. Depressed students often give up more quickly on tasks
they perceive as daunting, refuse to attempt academic work they find
too difficult, and quickly doubt their ability to independently complete
academic tasks or solve problems. Memory, speech, physical and
motor activity, and the ability to plan may also be affected. Many
depressed children and adolescents are lethargic, speak laboriously,
and have difficulty completely expressing thoughts and ideas.
The author(s) are approaching this with the intention of targeting
teachers and what they can specifically do to help their students
struggling with depression. Like most sources I have come upon
a direct approach seems to be favored.

The author(s) of this article seem to believe that social media
does in fact have a big impact on suicide rates. However, instead
of just attacking social media, they talk about how social media
can be used to prevent suicide. Most evidence that they display
shows that social media and suicide rates are correlated.

This source mainly focuses on statistics of teens with depression.
It gives statistics based on age, gender, and race. It talks about
general statistics about teen depression. The article talks about
what teens with depression will be at higher risk for, and it talks
about risk factors that can increase the chances of an episode. All
statistics were gathered from the National Institute of Mental
Health.
Teen depression can affect a teen regardless of gender, social
background, income level, race, or school or other achievements,
though teenage girls report suffering from depression more often
than teenage boys.
Because this is mostly statistic based it is unbiased.
