本研究探讨了在美国黑人、拉丁美洲人、亚洲人和白人的代表性样本中，社会经济地位（SES）的个体测量值与12个月重性抑郁症（MDD）患病率之间是否存在关联。使用的数据来自精神病学流行病学合作研究。在白人中，家庭收入与MDD之间存在关联。然而，这种关联在统计学上并不显著。白人受教育程度与MDD之间存在统计学显著相关。在白人和拉丁美洲人中，脱离劳动力与MDD显著相关。在出生分析中，在美国出生和外国出生的拉丁美洲人中，脱离劳动力与MDD显著相关。在白色人群中，在某些情况下，在拉丁美洲人群中，持续观察到SES和MDD的各种测量之间的显著关联。未来的研究应继续研究与SES相关的社会心理学因素，这些因素会增加来自种族-民族社区的人患MDD的风险。
This study examined whether there were associations between individual measures of socioeconomic status (SES) and the 12-month prevalence of major depressive disorder (MDD) in representative samples of Blacks, Latinos, Asians, and Whites in the United States. The data used were from the Collaborative Psychiatric Epidemiology Studies. There was an association between household income and MDD among Whites. However, the association was not statistically significant. Statistically significant associations were present between educational attainment and MDD among Whites. Among both Whites and Latinos, being out of the labor force was significantly associated with MDD. In analyses by nativity, being out of the labor force was significantly associated with MDD among US-born and foreign-born Latinos. Significant associations between various measures of SES and MDD were consistently observed among White and in some cases, among Latino populations. Future studies should continue to examine sociopsychological factors related to SES that increase the risk of MDD among people from racial-ethnic communities.
