Answer:
Cognitive-behavioral theorists consider that depression is produced because of the existence of distorted thoughts and judgments.
Explanation:
It is said that those distorted thoughts and judgments can be acquired socially. This can be seen when children who belong to a dysfunctional family observe how their parents cannot cope properly with some stressful experiences or any kind of traumatic event.
These distorted thoughts and judgments also can be acquired because it exists a lack of experiences in the person's environment which could provoke the development of adaptive coping skills.
