To examine the relationship between dysfunctional attitudes and personality in depressed patients.
One hundred depressed patients completed both the Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale (DAS) and the Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI).
Scores on the DAS correlated with duration of depression, age of onset of depression, age, harm avoidance and self-directedness. In a multiple regression analysis three measures explained 45% of the DAS score. These were duration of depression, reward dependence and self-directedness. In both the univariate analyses and multiple regression the strongest predictor of dysfunctional attitudes was the character dimension of self-directedness.
The character dimension of self-directedness in the TCI which assesses an individuals' self-concept, relates highly with the dysfunctional attitudes score on the DAS. Given that the TCI assesses personality within a broader framework of a psychobiologic and developmental model, self-directedness may have a wider application as a measure of self-concept than the DAS.
探讨抑郁症患者功能失调性态度与人格之间的关系。
100名抑郁症患者同时完成了功能失调性态度量表(DAS)和气质与性格问卷(TCI)。
DAS得分与抑郁持续时间、抑郁症发病年龄、年龄、回避伤害和自我导向相关。在多元回归分析中,三项指标解释了45%的DAS得分。这些指标是抑郁持续时间、奖赏依赖和自我导向。在单变量分析和多元回归中,功能失调性态度的最强预测因素都是自我导向这一性格维度。
TCI中评估个体自我概念的自我导向性格维度,与DAS上的功能失调性态度得分高度相关。鉴于TCI在心理生物学和发育模型的更广泛框架内评估人格,自我导向作为自我概念的一种测量方法可能比DAS有更广泛的应用。
