Depression can alter mental and cognitive functions, but it is often difficult to define in a clinical presentation if the problems it faces concern only concentration or if there are also memory and learning defects. Moreover, it is difficult to establish a link between cognitive impairment and specific depressive symptoms. What are the implications of mood, anxiety, or psychomotor retardation? This experimental work intends to analyze cognitive problems in depression and to establish a link between cognitive problems and major symptoms of depression.
