The study used an integrated approach, which consisted in the use of clinical-psychopathological, psychometric, psychodiagnostic and statistical research methods.</p> <p><strong>Results.</strong> According to the research results, a correlation analysis was carried out, which made it possible to determine the combination of clinical and psychopathological symptoms with the features of the cognitive functioning of patients with prolonged depressive reaction. Obsessive thoughts and hypochondriacal ideas have been shown to be associated with marked levels of anxiety; suicidal thoughts - with a protracted onset of depression and a minor depressive episode; mild violations of verbal productivity were associated with a major depressive episode and with a prolonged onset of depression, with 1-2 episodes of depression in anamnesis; a low level of attention switching was associated with an episode duration of up to 2 years, a protracted onset of depression, a major depressive episode, and an increased level of anxiety; average work efficiency correlated with a low level of anxiety, an episode duration of up to a year, 1-2 episodes of depression in anamnesis, a remission duration of more than 24 months; mobilization of mental processes was associated with a remission duration of more than 24 months and a reduced level of anxiety; high selectivity of attention to negative stimuli was combined with the duration of the episode up to 2 years and a pronounced level of anxiety; moderate disturbances in aggressive behavior patterns were associated with an episode duration of up to a year and a moderate level of anxiety.</p> <p><strong>Conclusions. </strong>The relationship between clinical and psychopathological features of anxiety and depressive manifestations and features of cognitive dysfunction in patients with prolonged depressive reaction were identified.
