title: [Personality assessment of primary school children (VIII grade) with depressive features (preliminary description)].
abstract: 235 primary school children (VIII grade) aged about 14 years, meeting the criteria for depressive syndrome were assessed by the IPAT High School Personality Questionnaire of R.B. Cattell (14 factors version). Results show that the personality of adolescents with depressive syndrome is characterized by a tendency to isolation and conflictual relations with peers. The results point also to the difference between depressive girls and boys. Girls' personality has more features similar to adult depressive personality such as introversion, schizothymia, isolation and irritability. In boys only the scale of isolation was alleviated. It is planned to compare these results with the results of a control group of normal adolescents.
