[Sociocultural aspects of depression. Results of an epidemiologic study of young adults in Zurich].
In a general population sample of young adults the sociocultural aspects of the depressive syndrome are investigated. In the context of a theory of social integration the association of depression with the material resources, with social belonging and with self realisation are analysed. There are marked correlations with the perceived fulfillment of basic social needs. The correlations with the structural prerequisites for social integration, however, are much weaker.
