Abstract
People provide help to others in various ways. Subclinically depressed individuals and controls read texts of people describing a negative situation and provided help in writing. Both groups reported higher reappraisal than distraction use when providing support. Depression symptoms were associated with perceived intensity, and similarity to the other person.
