        The aim of this study was to predict the role of personality traits in predicting imposter and depression symptoms among delinquent high school girls. The sample consisted of 220 girls who were selected by available random sampling from among delinquent high school girls in Isfahan Juvenile Detention Centers in 2014-15. The data collection tools were Costa and McCrea Big Five-Factor Personality Inventory (1992), Clans Imposter Phenomenon Scale (1978) and Beck's Depression Questionnaire (1990). Data were analyzed through step regression at p< .001 level of significance. The results by step regression analysis indicated the role of neuroticism, extraversion and conscientiousness in the prediction of imposter; and neuroticism and extraversion in the prediction of depression. By using the personality traits of delinquent juveniles it's possible to predict their imposter and depression and prevent them from being affected by these conditions. Manuscript profile
