The study aims to determine the relationship between temperaments and risk of depression of students at Ho Chi Minh City University of Education. A cross-sectional survey was implemented with the participation of 404 full-time students. The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) was used to identify the participants’ risk of depression, and the Eysenck Personality Inventory (EPI) to categorize their temperaments. The findings show that there is a relationship between the students’ temperaments and their risk of being depressed.
