ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to compare attention, memory, and executive function in a sample of boys, girls, and adolescents with and without symptoms of depression. Participants included 50 low income, school age children and adolescents between the ages of 9 and 16. Twenty five children with high scores and 25 with low scores on the Children Depression Inventory (CDI) were selected, and the groups were matched according to age, gender, and degree of schooling. They were then given a battery of neuropsychological tests in order to compare the attention, memory, and executive function of both groups. Results show a profile characterized by low performance in attention, semantic memory, and logic, as well as inhibitory control difficulties, in the group with symptoms of depression.
