Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between among stress, personality characteristics, and depression. Specifically, this study focused on the moderating effect of the self-directedness between life stress and depression. In this study, the self-directedness which was proposed by Cloninger(1994) as one of the seven-factor model was assumed to play an important role in depression. The subjects were 447 college students(258 males, females 189) who were recruited from fourteen different universities in South Korea. Self reported questionnaires such as Cloninger's the Temperament and Character Inventory based on Cloninger's psycho-biological model, Beck Depression Inventory and Delongins, Folkman & Lazarus(1988)'s Daily Stress Scale were administered to them. The findings were as the follows: First, The female subjects were significantly more depressed than the male subjects. Second, the depressed groups obtained higher scores in harm avoidance, novelty seeking and self-transcendence scales, as well as lower scores in self-directedness, cooperativeness, and reward dependance scales than those of the control groups. Third, the self-directedness among seven factors of the TCI was identified as the most powerful variable for prediction of depression in female subjects. Finally, the moderating effect of self-directedness between stress and depression was significant in female subjects. This results were suggestive that psychological intervention focusing self-directedness would be effective for the depressed woman.
