Depressiveness of people in early adulthood The article addresses the issue of depression and variables of age and gender. The study assumed that people in early adulthood (aged 20-35). At the same time, a hypothesis was put forward, which was determined by the statement - gender determines the intensity of depression symptoms in such a way that men present a lower intensity of the features characteristic for depression. A. Beck's Inventory (IDB - Beck Depression Inventory) and non-standardized questionnaire regarding the sense of security were used in the research. A total of 189 people were tested (F20-35 - 91; M20-35 - 98). Based on the analysis of the research it was established: the age of the respondents does not differ statistically (p = .12). In the case of the intensity of depression, there are significant differences between the studied women and men (p = .01). Early adulthood is not free from depressive states. Most respondents do not experience it. Young people present a sense of security in a moderate (subjective) way. Depressiveness is a determinant of the sense of security of the surveyed women. The symptoms of depression in higher intensity are noticeable in the examined women.

The aim of the study was the analysis of the relationships between self-regulation, action/state orientation, personality styles and the levels of anxiety and depression in people who are preoccupied with work, in their early adulthood. The theoretical background for our study was the Action Control and the Personality System Interaction theory by Julius Kuhl. In order to measure preoccupation with work we used The Preoccupation with Work Scale, the anxiety and depression levels were explored using the The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory and The Beck Depression Inventory, respectively. Self – regulation was assessed by using the Volitional Component Questionnaire and action vs. state orientation by using the Action Control Scale. The Personality Styles and Disorders Inventory, was employed to measure the different personality styles. 80 company employees (36 women and 44 men) from corporate enterprises in Wroclaw and Krakow participated in the research. We confi rmed that the levels of anxiety and depression can be viewed as predictors for preoccupation with work in early adulthood. The study also showed the protective effect of action orientation on the development of these psychological symptoms in people who are preoccupied with work. Those individuals most commonly displayed the obsessive – compulsive, narcissistic, and optimistic personality style.

Abstract The article is focused on relationships between the two types of narcissism and depressiveness as well as happiness. It seems important issue since many researchers claim that modern societies experience the epidemy of narcissism, which moreover, cannot be perceived as a homogeneous phenomenon. Material and methods The research sample included 122 participants (65 men and 57 women), aged between 18 and 35 years old. Results Obtained results were coherent with the previous researches. Grandiose narcissism was found to be a positive correlate of happiness but subsequent analysis revealed that self-esteem was a full mediator. Initial lack of interdependence between grandiose narcissism and depressiveness changed into moderate positive correlation when self-esteem was put as a mediator. Vulnerable narcissism was connected with higher depressiveness and lower happiness and these interrelationships were found to be fully mediated by neuroticism. Conclusions It seems that self-esteem and neuroticism are essential elements for the two types of narcissism.

Streszczenie Artykuł skupia się na zależnościach pomiędzy narcyzmem wielkościowym i nadwrażliwym a depresyjnością oraz poczuciem szczęścia. Tematyka ta w ostatnich latach zyskuje na uwadze i popularności z uwagi na wieszczoną przez wielu badaczy epidemię narcyzmu wśród współczesnych społeczeństw, a także na rosnącą świadomość dotyczącą niejednorodności tego konstruktu. Materiał i metody Zebrana próba wyniosła 122 osoby (65 mężczyzn i 57 kobiet), w wieku od 18 do 35 lat. Wyniki Narcyzm wielkościowy, zgodnie z oczekiwaniami, okazał się być dodatnim predyktorem poczucia szczęścia. Analizy wykazały, że samoocena jest mediatorem nie tylko tej zależności, ale także może powodować efekt supresji w związku narcyzmu z depresyjnością. Typ nadwrażliwy był predyktorem depresyjności, choć jak sugerowała analiza modeli mediacyjnych, za ten dodatni związek odpowiedzialna była neurotyczność, która mediowała również ujemny związek tego typu narcyzmu z poczuciem szczęścia. Wnioski Wydaje się, że samoocena i neurotyczność są bardzo ważnymi elementami dla dwóch typów narcyzmów, co potwierdziły analizy mediacji.
