It is a basic type, with a quantitative approach, non-experimental transectional, causal correlational design. The sample selected and processed was non-probabilistic for convenience, with a sample of 122 university students. The results obtained in this research have revealed a causal relationship between emotional dependence and major depressive disorder; for each student with emotional dependence, an increase of 0.208 in major depressive disorder is observed.
