يُعَدُّ الاكتئاب من أكثر الاضطرابات النفسية الشائعة بين المسنين و خصوصاً ذوي الأمراض الجسمية المزمنة و بشكل خاص مرضى السكري, فلذلك تحددت مشكلة البحث بالسؤال التالي: ما هي العلاقة بين مرض السكر و الاكتئاب عند المسنين؟ و لقد تناولت عينة البحث المسنين المقيمين في دار السعادة و الكرامة في مدينة دمشق و بلغت عينة البحث 40 مسناً و مسنة و تكونت العينة من 40 مفحوصاً من الأفراد المسنين فوق الـ60 سنة و استخدمت الباحثة في دراستها الحالية مقياس الاكتئاب للمسنين D.E.S و الذي يحتوي على 80 عبارة و ذلك لقياس الاكتئاب لدى المسنين. و لقد كشفت الدراسة عن: أنه بوجود مرض السكر عند المسن ترتفع لديه احتمالية الإصابة بالاكتئاب أو بزيادة أعراضه مقارنة مع غير المصابين بمرض السكري, و العكس صحيح و أن الإناث سجلت درجات مرتفعة على مقياس الاكتئاب مقارنة مع الذكور و أنه كلما كان التحصيل التعليمي متدنياً زاد من نسبة الاكتئاب عند المسنين المصابين بمرض السكري.
