    Objective: We aimed to investigate the relationship between childhood trauma with defense styles in depression patients. Materials and Methods: Fifty-seven patients were diagnosed with a major depressive disorder for the first time, and 51 age-sex-matched healthy volunteers participated in this study. All participants completed the socio-demographic data form, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Defense Style Questionnaire-40 (DSQ-40), and Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ). We compared the defensive style and childhood trauma scores between the group diagnosed with major depressive disorder and the group of healthy volunteers. In addition, we divided the depression group into two groups (with and without childhood trauma) according to the CTQ and compared defensive styles and depression scores between these groups. Results: The mean age of the patients was 30.93 ± 8.43 years, and the mean age of the control group was 30.94 ± 7.05. Mature defense style scores were statistically significantly higher in the control group than in the depression group. Immature defense style scores and all sub-dimensions except dissociation scores were statistically significantly higher in the patient group. There was a significant positive correlation between BDI and CTQ (r = 0.56; p < 0.001), BDI and immature defense styles (r = 0.52; p < 0.001), and a negative significant correlation BDI with mature defense styles (r = -0.38; p < 0.001) in depression group. The BDI score (p < 0.001) and immature defense styles (p = 0.03) were statistically significantly higher, and the mature defense styles were substantially lower (p = 0.009) in the depression group with childhood trauma. Conclusions: Our study results showed a positive relationship between childhood trauma and immature defense styles and a negative association with mature defense styles in patients with depression.
