Abstract

Is important to understand the causal factors of depression from a social standpoint because it is easily forgotten in the health field. We frame this work in the sociology of health, which is a highly developed science in the U.S. but very little on Spain. Try to learn the causes and consequences of depression in women and how the values, behaviours, attitudes and roles assigned to women in our culture are all factors related to depression using the gender approach, but without forgetting how it affects men.
