Abstract
The author compared 94 depressed patients with 94 nondepressed patients who had a personality disorder in a matched control study. A family history of depression, parental loss before 17 years, and unemployment were found to be risk factors associated with depression in the women. In the men, however, parental loss was the only factor associated with depression.
