Older adults are prone to depression. This study aimed to investigate the depression of older adults living alone in Shanghai and its risk factors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>The data from the survey of quality of life of community\u2010dwelling older adults in Shanghai from April 2015 to March 2016 was used in this study. A total of 387 older adults living alone in two communities in Shanghai participated in this study. Structured questionnaires were used to collect data, including depression, the presence of chronic diseases, functional ability, self\u2010rated health, loneliness, social support and sociodemographic variables.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The prevalence of depression was 26.9%. There were significant differences across the participants of different genders, education levels, previous occupations, economic levels, residential areas, physical activity levels, chronic diseases, functional ability levels, levels of self\u2010rated health, loneliness levels and social support levels (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05).
