The purposes of this dissertation were to: (1) assess the prevalence of depressive symptoms in Thai adolescents; (2) identify factors related to depressive symptoms; (3) determine whether negative thinking mediate the effects of parental bonding, everyday stressors, and self-esteem on depressive symptoms; and (4) examine the psychometric properties of the Reynolds Adolescent Depression Scale (RADS) and the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D), two commonly used of depressive symptoms measures. Data were collected from 812 high school students in Chon Buri province, Thailand. Measures used were the Parental Bonding Instrument (PBI; Parker, Tupling, & Brown, 1979), the Everyday Stressors Index Adolescent version (ESI-A; Hall & Charoensuk, 2004), the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale (RSE; Rosenberg, 1965), the Crandell Cognitions Inventory (CCI; Crandell & Chambless, 1986), the RADS (Reynolds, 1987), and the CES-D (Radloff, 1977). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, factor analysis, bivariate correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. The results of the psychometric test provided supports for the reliability and validity of both the RADS and the CES-D when used with Thai adolescents. However, the original factor structures of both the RADS and CES-D were not replicated..
