摘要:This study was performed to determine the associations of depressive symptoms with regular leisure activity and family social support among Japanese workers. The study participants consisted of 1,605 men and 348 women. Depressive symptoms were evaluated using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression scale. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to adjust for potentially associated variables. Depressive symptoms were associated with lack of regular leisure activity for men [odds ratio (OR) = 2.05, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.55-2.71] and for women (OR = 2.53, 95% CI = 1.30-4.95). Depressive symptoms were also associated with lack of family social support for men (OR = 1.87, 95% CI = 1.43-2.43). Although a cross-sectional study does not determine which factors are determinants or consequences, these findings suggest regular leisure activity for men and women and family social support for men are independently associated with depressive symptoms.
