Abstract: Present study has an aim to develop psychological scales of “paranoid sense” and “depressive sense” as result of psychological process not psychiatric symptom. The author, based on bio-psycho-social model, defined paranoid sense and depressive sense that would occur from psychological process and made scales referring to Paranoia-Depression Scale （Bodner & Mikulincer, 1998）. The results of research for undergraduate students almost supported the three psychological hypothetical suggestions that based on these definitions. The three suggestions are the correlations between these sense and depression （SDS : Zung, 1965）, sense of acceptance, sense of rejection, the influence by interaction of sense of acceptance and praise seeking need, and the effects for social retreat, exhaustion. The scales of paranoid sense and depressive sense would have a certain level of reliability and validity.
