Abstract
Regression analyses were run to examine the relationship between depression, self-reported offending, and future orientation. Depression significantly predicted both offending (p < 0.001) and future orientation (p < 0.001). Future orientation also predicted offending (p < 0.01), significantly mediating the relation between depression and offending.
