According to "more depressed" The scientists at the University of Texas at Austin interviewed 2800 middle aged men and women in 1993-2004 the aged between 54 to 64. The study said that women have more education and more ability to do job authority, otherwise, these women more strict , aggressive and hard working, but women want to do the work complete, even if they will do overtime and bring the problems go back to home. This is a bad behavior as leaders So it make them have fewer symptoms of depression than women without job authority. In contrast, men are the same symptoms of depression too, but men are stronger mental and hangout. Especially, men are not responsibility families than women. The weak point of women is more likely than men to display symptoms of depression. From the statistic of scientists that women have 9% increased rate of depressive symptoms than women without authority.
This depression is depend on person and behavior. I think they should exercise for relaxation and healthy.

Thanks Tip,
ReplyDeleteThe results are interesting - positions of higher authority reduce depression in men, but increase it in women. To use some useful vocabulary that is Hartmann and Blass introduce in the General Interest Reading we are working on at the moment, do you think this difference between men and women is primarily a result of learned or of innate behaviours?
