The study investigated whether results on the Seasonal Pattern Assessment Questionnaire, which is used for diagnosis of seasonal affective disorder, differed by the season in which the questionnaire was completed.
Every third month from March 1997 to February 1998, a population-based panel of 200 men and women age 27-72 years in Gamvik, northern Norway, completed a standardized questionnaire that included all items from the Seasonal Pattern Assessment Questionnaire.
The average score for seasonal affective disorder changed over the year. The difference between the highest score, in March, and the lowest, in September, was 8.8%.
Results on the Seasonal Pattern Assessment Questionnaire varied by season, but did not vary by seasonal differences in the amount of daylight.
本研究调查了用于诊断季节性情感障碍的季节性模式评估问卷的结果是否因完成问卷的季节不同而有所差异。
从1997年3月至1998年2月,每隔三个月,挪威北部加姆维克一个由200名年龄在27至72岁之间的男性和女性组成的基于人群的小组完成一份标准化问卷,该问卷包含季节性模式评估问卷的所有项目。
季节性情感障碍的平均得分在一年中有所变化。3月的最高分与9月的最低分之间的差异为8.8%。
季节性模式评估问卷的结果因季节而异,但不因日照时长的季节性差异而有所不同。
