Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Freud and Abraham proposed a diathesis-stress model of depression, where vulnerability for depression is created by unfulfilled oral needs, and the onset of depression is triggered by a stressful life event such as the loss of a loved one. This is consistent with the diathesis-stress model, which suggests that a person's vulnerability or predisposition towards a disorder interacts with environmental/stressful factors to cause the disorder. None of the other options describe an oral needs/loss of loved one model proposed by Freud and Abraham.
