In this research, we examined whether the prediction of future events by the person with a high depression tendency was more accurate than that of the person with a low depression tendency. Participants were 137 female college students. Question paper investigations were executed twice. The interval between investigations was a month. In the 1st investigation, both Depression-Happiness Scale and Scale of Life Events in Interpersonal and Achievement Domains questionnaires were used. In the 2nd, only Scale of Life Events in Interpersonal and Achievement Domains questionnaire was used. In this research, it was not possible to conclude which prediction, the high or the low, depression group, was accurate. The accuracies of the predictions were at the same level between the high and the low depression group. It suggests that accuracy of predictions may vary with the differences of prediction and an actual experience.
