DEPRESSION AMONG THE GENERAL POPULATION IN IRAN: IRANIAN HEALTH PERCEPTION SURVEY

Pages

  221-226

Abstract

 Objective(s): To collect data on self-reported DEPRESSION among the general population in IRAN and indicate its contributing factors.Methods: This was a nationwide cross sectional study. A random sample of individuals aged between 18 and 65 years were entered into the study. Respondents were asked to rate their anxiety on a 5-point scale. The record of demographic and socioeconomic data included age, gender, education, marital status, employment, income, SELF-REPORTED HEALTH and chronic diseases. Logistic regression analysis was used to estimate odds ratios for contributing factors to self-reported DEPRESSION.Results: In all 27, 883 individuals took part in the study. The mean age of respondents was 32.7 (SD=11.8) years. Overall 8.6% reported that they were very or very much depressed. The results obtained from logistic regression analysis showed that divorced [OR=2.46] and wife dead [OR=1.77], unemployed [OR=1.45], lower income groups [OR=1.65], those with lower SELF-REPORTED HEALTH [OR for lowest group=7.27], and having at least one chronic disease [OR=1.58], were more likely to suffer from DEPRESSION.Conclusion: The findings indicated that there were inverse relationships between DEPRESSION, marital status, income and SELF-REPORTED HEALTH.
