A study is conducted to investigate associations between cognitive deficits and persistent significant depressive symptoms at baseline and 2 and 4-year follow-ups in a sample of 661 community-dwelling middle-aged and older adults. Trait-like cognitive deficits commonly complicate the course of MD (major depression) in community-dwelling middle-aged and older adults.
