Investigated the relationship between numerous age-related stresses and depression in the elderly. Sixty-eight residents of a retirement center completed a questionnaire that assessed depression and a wide range of possible losses or stresses. Depression was found to be related to poorer financial status, fewer and less satisfying interpersonal relationships, poorer physical health and greater concerns about death for women and to poorer physical health and lack of involvement in activities for men.
