The article shows that the problem of hypo- and hyperdiagnostic of depression is related to the differences in its manifestations among representatives of different countries, as well as ethnic minorities living in the same country. This raises the issue of cultural validation of the depression symptoms. The values of collectivism-individualism as one of the dimensions of cultures that defines their differences, is associated with the possibilities of the formation of psychopathology. The article presents the results of the study of manifestation peculiarities of collectivism-individualism among the respondents of ethnic groups ofSiberiain the context of studying the problems of depression factors. The questionnaire "Scale of individualism-collectivism" (Triandis H. C.) is used. The study features representatives of the ethnic groups ofSiberia. The results revealed that the manifestations of collectivism-individualism are presented in different ways in groups according to ethnic and nosologic criteria; the preference values of collectivism in the group "Altai" and "Yakut" is marked, in the other groups no pronounced orientation towards the poles of collectivism-individualism is revealed; the respondents with the manifestations of the depression symptoms are more focused on the mutual dependence of people from each other regardless of the ethnicity, and they are characterized by three types of the ratio of intensity values of collectivismindividualism; respondents without depressive symptoms according to the criterion of collectivism-individualism are characterized by two types.
