Abstract: | A longitudinal study of Australian school leavers is presented. Three main target groups were compared in terms of self-esteem, depressive affect and mood using their at-school measures as a baseline. The target groups were employed, or full-time students, or unemployed.The most surprising findings is that psychological distress produced by prolonged unemployment seems to decline after 12 months. |
