This report presents data on prospective associations of life‐event measures with psychological symptoms. Two issues in particular are addressed, the one relating to the causal influence of life‐events on symptom onset, and the other to the role of personal interpretations of life‐event impact in this association. The latter issue derives from a consideration of the cognitive view of stress. Prospective associations did, indeed, emerge and were strongest where the individual was permitted to personally assess the impact of encountered life‐events. Temporal patterns of association varied with the kinds of symptoms (anxiety or depression) used as the dependent variable
