title: [Roles and traits of woman today and its relation to depressive disorder].
abstract: The femenine labour and school roles have experienced a deep suitable change lengthwise last fifty years thanks to the autocontrol of fertility, although the psychological traits remain stable. The feminine corporal autoimage works more and more as the psychic variable which represents the individual identity. At the same time, the annual prevalence of depressive disorder has doubled, even though the depressive gender rate has gone down from 3:1 to 2:1 because of women got socio-economical independence. Last but no least, the causal factors of depressive over incidence in women are studied distributed in five sectors: central nervous system, neuroendocrine system, physical condition, personality and social environment.
