Abstract
An abundance of research has been conducted to more fully understand the
relationship between anxiety and depression. Yet because of incongruent findings on this
subject, researcher have been unable to agree upon a single accurate model to represent
the complete relationship of anxiety and depression. This paper evaluates the five
theoretical models that have been constructed thus far based on evidence from the clinical
course, the psychological assessments and psychometric data, the patient treatment
outcomes, and the family history studies of anxiety and depression. This paper also
illustrates the importance of understanding the relationship between anxiety and
depression based on the elevated suicide rates of those individuals who suffer from
concurrent anxiety and depression.
