| Annotation | This study used data from a prospective investigation of full-time workers aged 58 to 64 years and residing in a North Carolina metropolitan area, United States (US), at baseline to examine a causal model for depressive symptomatology among white and African American men and women. Findings revealed significant group differences. White men were more vulnerable to social network losses than white women; work stressors had long-term effects on African American men whose levels of depressive symptoms were also elevated by poor health and retirement; and the influence of income was more dominant among African Americans and its effect was greater for African American women. |
