Depression is expensive to all nations in the world. How the causes of depression are understood is constantly evolving. This paper looks at socioeconomic
contributors to depression with care for current understandings of the problem
along with recent data. Previous understandings of an inverse relationship between income and depression are bolstered here along with other mental health
symptoms. The analysis is conducted with an ordinal logistic regression model
assuming proportional odds, implemented in this regression are two unique instruments for personal and family income. The results in this paper are relevant
to public policy professionals who aim to minimize depression’s cost to their society. Repository attached below

With recent advances in AI -- specifically deep fake creations -- it becomes crucial for our socities

tured 150 years after its initial establishment
