RESUMO

The sample was composed of 169 students, from the third, fourth and fifth grades. Subjects were from both sexes and from low socioeconomic background. Data was collected an interview with a small group of students at school. Only those students whose parents consented their participation were interviewed in this study. During the interview, students filled out a Learning Strategies Questionnaire and a Children’s Depression Inventory. Information regarding students’ school performance were obtained after finishing the second month. Results indicated the presence of depressive symptoms in children and its negative interference in the use of learning strategies, and in the school performance, mainly in mathematics. Data called attention to the importance that teachers and family be able to recognize and early identify depressive symptons which, in turn, would facilitate the appropriate treatment. This study also pointed out the need of creating new intervention programs target at the development not only of cognitive strategies, but also of affective strategies.
