Romantic partnership is associated with fewer depressive symptoms; however, it is unclear whether this association varies by age among young women. The National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979-Young Adult Sample (N = 2,403) was used to compare depressive symptoms among partnered -- married, cohabiting, or dating --- and unpartnered women (ages 18-29). Multilevel regression results show that differences in depression symptoms between partnered statuses and singlehood are moderated by age. Compared to singlehood, cohabitation was most consistently related to lower depression symptoms (ages 20-25) while marriage (ages 22-25) and dating (ages 21-22) were associated with lower depression symptoms at fewer ages. |
