Income rank and depressive symptoms among employees in Germany − A 5-year cross-lagged panel analysis
Background/Objective
Socioeconomic disparities in mental health are well-established. Previous research suggests that relative income rank is associated with depressive symptoms above and beyond absolute income. This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of income rank for future depressive symptoms while accounting for absolute income. Exploring potential reverse pathways from depressive symptoms to income rank was a secondary objective.
Method
A two-wave cross-lagged panel design with a 5-year follow-up was used to analyze data for income rank, absolute income, and two dimensions of depressive symptoms (i.e., cognitive-affective and somatic symptoms) from initially 4,201 employees. Income rank was calculated for reference groups, based on the same gender, the same 5-year age band, and the same occupational skill level.
Results
Lower income rank at baseline predicted a higher severity of cognitive-affective depressive symptoms at five-year follow-up, even after adjusting for absolute income. In contrast, income rank did not demonstrate a significant unique longitudinal association with somatic depressive symptoms when simultaneously taking absolute income into account. There was no evidence for the assumption that depressive symptoms are predictive for future income rank (i.e., reverse pathway).
Conclusions
Cognitive-affective symptoms of depression might be particularly responsive to social comparisons and a relatively low social rank.
