Abstract
BackgroundWhile there is evidence that low socioeconomic status (SES) increases susceptibility to depression, few studies have focused on the effect of marital SES matching on depression. This study aimed to explore the impact of SES indicator matching on depressive symptoms in newlyweds and clarify the interaction of depressive symptoms between couples.MethodsWe assessed the depressive symptoms of newlyweds (N = 28, 179 couples) using a 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire. Logistic regression models and restricted cubic splines were used to explore the association between SES indicator matching and depressive symptoms and the interaction of depressive symptoms in newlyweds, respectively.ResultsCompared with newlyweds with both high-level SES, the newlyweds with both low-level SES, male higher SES, or female higher SES had an increased risk of depressive symptoms in husbands (OR = 1.31; 1.22; 1.30), wives (OR = 1.30; 1.36; 1.32), and couples (OR = 1.48; 1.56; 1.57) (all P < 0.05). In addition, as the level of depression in one partner increases, the risk of depression in the other partner also increases.ConclusionMismatched SES and low-level SES between couples have adverse effects on depressive symptoms in newlyweds, with depressive symptoms having a positive association between newlyweds.
