This study investigated the relations of depression with students’ self -esteem, family attachment and academic performence. In the Information age, university students face with different problems regarding their family and school. Although some students can overcome these problems, some others cannot cope with them. Adverse conditions which many students experienced can cause mental ilnessess, such as depression. In this project, variables which lead to depression among students were examined. A total of 155 volunteers; 81 female and 74 male from different universities of Turkey were participated in the study (Mean age:21,69). In this project, Beck depression Inventory, IPPA Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment and The Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) were applied, respectively. The results of analysis supported the relation of mother ‘dialog- self esteem’ and father ‘alienation’ with depression, but then this relation has lost its meaning with the findings of negative significant correlation between self-esteem and depression. The results showed that depression has a strong negative relationship with self-esteem (correlation coefficient of - ,407). No correlation was found between depression and academic achievement. The findings were discussed based on the relationship of family attachment, self-esteem, and gender with depression.
