Depression is one of the most common psychiatric disorders among adults and adolescents. Over the past 12 years, a significant progress in depression prevention research has taking place although many studies in this field still exhibit serious flaws. This paper discusses issues such as the choice of prevention objectives, theoretical considerations, the identification of high-risk groups, and the design of both preventive programs and their evaluation.
