Abstract

The aim of the present research was to study the direct and indirect relationships between academic self-efficacy and adolescence depression. Participants were 946 high school students (471 girls and 475 boys) in Tehran who were selected by cluster sampling method. Child Depression Inventory (CDI), Self-Efficacy Questionnaire, and Peer Rejection Questionnaire were also used. Path analysis revealed that the model fit was satisfactory. The academic efficacy had a significant direct and an indirect effect, through peer rejection, on depression. The effect of academic efficacy on academic achievement was significant, but the indirect effect, through academic achievement, on depression was not significant. Clinical implications of adolescent depression were discussed.
