Abstract
What are the factors that may precipitate overt depressive illness in the predisposed patient? The available data indicate that for unipolar disease, at least, the dearest correlations are not with economic or social status or with race, but rather with sex. Women display a lifetime risk about twice that of men in the same population, and the differences in social roles of the two sexes are probably largely responsible.
