The social-cognitive perspective has emphasized the impact of learned helplessness on depression. Learned helplessness refers to the belief that one has no control over their environment or situations, which can lead to feelings of hopelessness and eventually depression. This perspective suggests that individuals who experience repeated failures or negative outcomes may develop the belief that they are unable to change their circumstances, leading to a sense of helplessness and ultimately depression.
