From a cognitive perspective, depression may be related to some of people's mistakes, which includes our beliefs on ourselves, environment, and future events.

Recently, a researcher at the University of Cobranz-Lan Dao University published a research on "Clinical Psychology Science" and focused on the impact of depression on future expectations. Studies have shown that depression may form a cognitive immunity for positive feedback, which will cause people to correct their negative expectations for future in the future even after receiving good evaluation and praise. The exception.

Researchers recruited 379 participants (200 people reported at least minor depression symptoms) to complete a challenging emotional intelligence test. The test requires the participants to correctly identify the emotional response of another person in a specific situation. Participants reported their own expectations before testing and their performance in similar tasks. After the test, regardless of their actual performance, they will receive slight, moderate or very positive feedback. After receiving the feedback, they reported that if they participated in the test of their expected performance again.

The results showed that whether the participants had depression symptoms, they would update their expectations for the future based on feedback. However, no matter what the feedback of depression symptoms, their expectations for future expectations are generally low at a low level, and they believe that any form of positive feedback is not credible, but the exception.
