Relationship between Color Code Personality and Depression of Freshman Students at Royal University of Phnom Penh

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between color code personality and depression among freshmen at the Royal University of Phnom Penh (RUPP). The research utilized the Hopkins Symptom Checklist (HSCL) to measure anxiety and depression levels and Hartman’s Color Code Personality questionnaire to identify personality types. The findings reveal a significant association between color code personality and depression, with white personalities exhibiting the highest levels of depression compared to red personalities. Additionally, anxiety was found to be positively correlated with depression. The study underscores the importance of understanding personality traits in developing interventions to address mental health concerns among university students.
