Abstract:
The present work tried to find out the postmenopausal depression rates and whether depressive symptoms are due to hormonal disturbances or to multiple variables, not only biological, but also psychological and social. The sample included 128 women with no psychiatric history, pharmacological therapy or recent, important events. Results show a high rate of depression related to different variables, but especially over that of the negative anticipated thinking.
