Depression and anxiety disorders are likely to occur during adolescence and have huge impact for them, but there are a few studies about the effects of depression and anxiety disorder on the cognitive ability of adolescents. In this study, the effects of depression and anxiety disorder on the cognitive ability of adolescents was investigated through various behavioral tasks. 56 male high school students performed Emotional Perception Task, and etc. In correlational analysis, response time of the Emotional Perception Task had significant correlation with BDI and BAI, and there is no significant correlation with other tests such as Tower of London Task. This indicates that the depression and anxiety of disorders has an influence on adolescents about emotional perception or visual acuity but not higher cognitive abilities.
