The Effects Of Induced Depressed Mood On Recall Of Experiences With Racial Discrimination, Tamra Williams
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Two studies examined the relationship between reported racial discrimination and depression, and whether this relationship may be due to depressed mood induced influences.

My comments focus, however, on Glannon's objections to evolutionary theorists who explain our capacity for depression as adaptive to the natural and social environment. His objections are implausible because he fails to distinguish depression as a mood and a disorder.
