Sažetak
Background: Antepartum depression (APD) and postpartum depression (PPD) are a significant public health problem. Aim of
the study was to determine which personality disorders features could be found in women with APD and PPD compared to women without perinatal depression.
Subjects and methods: The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale and the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI- 2) were administered during peripartum to a sample of 54 women recruited at the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Unit, Perugia (Italy).
Results: Results were grouped according to the EPDS ranges 0-8 and 9, and to the MMPI-2 scores on each clinical scale.
Women with APD had high scores on the MMPI-2 Hypomania, Cynicism, and Antisocial Practices scales; women with early onset PPD (detected in the first week after childbirth) had high scores on the Paranoia and Low Self-Esteem scales; women with late onset PPD (detected up to three months after childbirth), had high scores on the Fears, Obsessiveness, and Depression scales.
Conclusions: Based on the high scores of specific MMPI-2 scales, our study would suggest that: cluster B personality features
may represent a vulnerability factor for APD; passive-aggressive personality features may be a vulnerability factor for early onset PPD; cluster C personality features may act as a vulnerability factor for late onset PPD.
