I finished reading Ligotti two days before discovering the depressive cognition literature. Wow, explanatory power!https://twitter.com/androt/status/867054356696371200 …
Is depressive realism valid? I've heard there are severe criticisms of the research?

That’s my understanding, yes. There are certain tasks on which depressed people do give more realistic answers; others, less realistic.

Basically, on tasks where people are typically over-optimistic, depressed people are less optimistic, so more realistic.
