Abstract
Objectives The purpose of this study is to investigate the relations among irrational beliefs, depression, and self-disgust, and determine the mediating role of self-disgust in the relationship between irrational beliefs and depression.
 Methods Data for this research were collected by conducting an online survey nationwide with 397 respondents (male 149 and female 248) ranging from their 20s to 60s, and the mediating effect was examined through the covariance structure model analysis.
 Results The The main results of this study are summarized as follows. First, it turned out that irrational beliefs such as demandingness, catastrophizing, frustration intolerance, and self-downing have a positive influence on depression. Second, it was demonstrated that self-disgust serves as a partial mediator associations between demandingness, catastrophizing, frustration intolerance and depression. Third, self-disgust proved to function as a full mediator between self-downing and depression.
 Conclusions On the basis of the results, the meanings of the study and the implications for more effective interventions for depression treatment in terms of cognitive behavioral therapy are discussed, and suggestions for further research are proposed.
