The Correlation Of Residual Subjective Cognitive And Depressive Symptoms with Social Functioning in Remitted Major Depressive Disorder Patients

Abstract

Aim: In Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) residual symptoms cause disability in the remission phase even if they are mild. This study investigated the correlation of residual depressive and residual subjective cognitive symptoms with social functioning in remitted MDD patients. Methods: In the study, 51 patients who had been diagnosed with MDD before, were followed regularly and had been in remission for at least 6 months, were included. The socio-demographic data form, Beck Depression Inventory, Perceived Deficits Questionnaire-Depression, and Social Adaptation Self-evaluation Scale were applied to all participants. In the statistical analysis; descriptive analyses, Pearson’s Correlation Analysis and linear regression analysis were used. Results: Residual depressive symptom severity showed a positive correlation with social functioning level, while residual subjective cognitive symptom severity had a negative correlation with social functioning level. In the linear regression analysis it was determined that residual depressive and subjective cognitive symptom scores were a predictor of social functioning. Conclusion: In the study, it was determined that residual depressive and subjective cognitive symptoms encountered in MDD remission phase might affect social functioning negatively. Rapid and practical subjective cognitive tests can be used in identifying cognitive symptoms in MDD remission phase.
