Abstract in brief

  • Depression is often linked to negative thoughts about the future, but the core problem may actually be that people with depression have faulty mental images of possible futures, which worsens their mood and motivation.
  • Researchers found that depression involves three key issues with prospection: poor generation of future possibilities, negative evaluation of these futures, and negative beliefs about the future, creating a vicious cycle.
  • Future-oriented therapies, like those from cognitive-behavioral approaches, that focus on improving how individuals imagine and assess future events could offer new, cross-disorder treatment strategies for depression and related conditions.]
