Depression is a mental state characterized by feelings of sadness, loneliness, despair, low self-esteem, social withdrawal, pessimism, sense of failure, irritability, and loss of appetite and insomnia. It has been revealed by researches that women are more prone to depression and also high on depression than men. There are many factors which contribute to the complex picture of depression in women like reproductive hormones to social pressures, etc. The objectives of this study are to compare working married and working unmarried females on depression and to compare non-working married and non-working unmarried females on depression. Sample of the study consisted of 80 women who were taken from different offices and houses. Their age ranged between 25 and 35 years, and their marital status was of both types, i.e., married and unmarried. T-test is used to analyze the data. Findings of the study show that working married women are high on depression than working unmarried women. Findings also suggest that non-working unmarried women are high on depression than non-working married women.Keywords
