Abstract

At least 95 million people in China now suffer from depression, and cases of depression and suicide are increasingly common among younger people. This paper aims to study whether CSE is a mediating variable of SES influencing depression and the differences between men and women variables, and then provide practical reference to effectively prevent and relieve the depression. This paper uses the data of CGSS (Chinese General Social Survey) in 2017. Statistical analyses were conducted using SPSS 24.0 and used the PROCESS macro for SPSS (Model 4) to investigate the mediating effect of CSE in the relationship between SES and depression. According to the research results, SES is significantly related to the depression of the Chinese. CSE is a mediating variable between SES and depression and the male and female groups were basically consistent with the total group results.
