AIM To investigate the short term memory function of the young adult patients with nonpsychotic depression. METHODS The scores of the Clinic Memory Tests of the young adult patients with nonpsychotic depression were compared with those of the healthy volunteers. RESULTS In the Clinic Memory Test, the patients' scores were lower than those of the control in the Pointing Memory Test, Associating Study Test, Image Free Recollecting Test, People's Figure Characters Memory Test ( P <0.001). But in theNonsense Picture Recognizing Exam, there was no significant difference between the two groups.
