De Velde, Bracke & Levecque (2010) conducted several data analyses of the third round of the European social survey which 'covered 25 European countries in 2006-2007'. Their aim was to examine the variance between the countries and the sexes regarding the risk factors of depression.

Using data from a self-reported eight-item version of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies [[Depression]] Scale (CES-D), it was found that [[marriage]] and cohabitation was a protective factor against the development of depression in both sexes. Conversely, being single or widowed was a significantly larger risk factor for higher levels of depression in men than in women.
