Abstract in brief

  • The study explores how psychological factors like reactance, health beliefs, and self-confidence influence whether psychiatric outpatients with depression stick to their medication plans, finding that younger age and lower psychological reactance are linked to better adherence.
  • Specifically, patients with high psychological reactance, which is a resistance to influence or authority, tend to be less compliant with their medication, especially if they feel their health is controlled externally, such as by their doctor.
  • Overall, understanding these psychological traits can help clinicians tailor their advice to improve medication adherence, emphasizing the importance of considering individual psychological characteristics in treating depression.]
