A predictive and moderation model of depression in adolescents, and the creation of the Javier-Aliaga’s single-item scales of happiness and self-efficacy (version 1.0)
The findings highlight the significant influence of perfectionism, self-efficacy, and happiness on depression among Peruvian adolescents, with happiness emerging as the most impactful variable. Moreover, the moderating role of sex suggests that interventions targeting these factors should be designed differently for males and females.
