Major depression and the self-criticism and dependency personality dimensions
Abstract
The Depressive Experiences Questionnaire was used to assess the personality dimensions of dependency and self-criticism in 52 depressed patients before and after treatment and in 22 healthy family practice patients. Neither personality dimension was significantly influenced by change in depressed mood, and the recovered depressed patients had higher levels of dependency and self-criticism than the comparison subjects.
