Correction

It has been brought to our attention that on p. 79 of the paper “Income inequality and depression: a systematic review and meta‐analysis of the association and a scoping review of mechanisms”, by Patel et al, published in the February 2018 issue of World Psychiatry, the ethnicity of the participants in the study by Fernández‐Niño et al (2014) was incorrectly reported as “Hispanic”, whereas it was mixed, also including people of indigenous descent.
