Associations of financial strain and income with depressive and anxiety disorders
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: Previous research has shown socioeconomic inequality in prevalence and onset of depressive disorders. It is not yet clear whether perceived financial strain is associated with depressive and/or anxiety disorders in addition to an objective indicator, such as income. This study examines whether financial strain is associated with the prevalence and onset/recurrence of depressive and/or anxiety disorders, above income. METHODS: Data are from the Netherlands Study of Depression and Anxiety. Associations between financial strain, income and presence of depressive and/or anxiety disorder at baseline were assessed among 2937 participants (18-65 years). Impact of financial strain and income on 4-year onset/recurrence of depressive and/or anxiety disorders were examined among 1250 participants without a depressive or anxiety disorder at baseline. Depressive and anxiety disorders were determined with the Composite-International-Diagnostic-Interview. Financial strain and income were assessed in an interview. RESULTS: Participants with mild or severe financial strain had higher odds of being depressed (OR=1.68, 95% CI 1.35 to 2.09; OR=3.88, 95% CI 2.58 to 5.81) or remitted (OR=1.56, 95% CI 1.24 to 1.96; OR=1.99, 95% CI 1.27 to 3.11) at baseline compared with healthy controls, after adjusting for income. Mild or severe financial strain was not associated with onset/recurrence of depressive and/or anxiety disorders during follow-up (OR=1.08, 95% CI 0.83 to 1.42; OR=1.05, 95% CI 0.64 to 1.73). CONCLUSIONS: Financial strain was associated with having a depressive and/or anxiety disorder, above the effect of income. Healthcare and social services should be alert to this association, even for higher income households. However, financial strain and income were not related with 4-year onset/recurrence of depressive and/or anxiety disorders.

“Moreover, these findings might be explained by a number of reasons, such as period factors (e.g. the possible higher impact on group aged 45 to 59 of the previous economic recession period, particularly in those belonging to the most disadvantaged groups) and other potential mediators in the relationship of age and depression”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
