Psychopathologyis very common in people suffering with epilepsy (PWE), but possible gender differences are often neglected. Therefore, the present study was conducted to examine whether girls and boys with epilepsy differ with regard to anxiety and depressive symptoms. A total of 140 adolescent epileptic patients (males=70, females=70) completed self-report measures, i.e., The Symptoms Checklist 90-R (Derogatis, Yevzeroff, & Wittelsberger, 1975). Results showed that there are gender differences in three comorbidities. It was found that female patients have scored significantly higher on three subscales of Symptoms Checklist, viz., Somatisation (FG Mean=14.173, SD=7.265, MG Mean=10.560, SD=7.289, t=3.040, p<.003), Depression (FG Mean=14.93, SD=9.084, MG Mean=11.39, SD=8.391, t=2.284, p<.01), Anxiety (FG Mean=11.03, SD=7.423, MG Mean=8.41, SD=6.633, t=2.273 p <.02). It depicts that there were gender differences in somatisation, depression, anxiety; females had higher scores than males. Future intervention studies may show whether providing more information about the illness and treatment reduces the level of anxiety and depression. Our results suggest that such interventions should be tailored to the different needs of girls and boys.Keywords

Mindfulness as psychological construct has been studied since long in relation to different mental health variables with different dimensions. Present study investigates the differences between clinical and non-clinical samples their trait mindfulness and its relationship with depression. A sample of 200 depressive patients and 200 normal adults drawn from various psychiatric hospitals were tested on Back Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) and Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire (FFMQ). Comparison of these two groups revealed non-clinical sample scored higher than clinical on three facets of mindfulness (i.e., act with awareness, non-judgmental & non-reactive) and the global mindfulness score. Depression in clinical group was strongly predicted by mindfulness (R=0.557 p<.001) and significantly but slightly lower in non-clinical group (R=0.46 p<.001). Hence, it is concluded that mindfulness plays vital role in the control of depression in non-clinical group.Keywords
