This study investigated scores on depression of students in sports. 311 (ns = 60, 100, 100, 40, 11) female athletic candidates were selected randomly and administered the Beck Depression Inventory. Initially, 60 persons who had gone through a body-building course for less than 1 month took the inventory and again after 4 wk. The mean score difference was -3.5. This decline in mean depression score after 4 wk. of exercise was significant. In the next step, 100 women new to body building and 100 women who had completed 2 mo. body building were compared. Their mean scores were 13.3 for newcomers and 10.2 for the 2-mo. group, a significant difference. Finally, 40 female athletes who had swum for less than 1 mo. were compared with professional swimmers from the Fars province. Their mean depression scores were 10.5 and 6.5, respectively. This difference was also significant. We concluded that exercising is associated with lower mean scores on the Beck Depression Inventory.
本研究调查了从事体育运动的学生的抑郁得分情况。随机选取了311名（人数分别为60、100、100、40、11）女性体育考生，并对她们进行了贝克抑郁量表测试。最初，60名参加健身课程不到1个月的人进行了测试，4周后再次测试。平均得分差异为-3.5。运动4周后平均抑郁得分的下降具有显著性。下一步，比较了100名刚开始健身的女性和100名已完成2个月健身的女性。新人的平均得分为13.3，2个月组的平均得分为10.2，差异显著。最后，将40名游泳不到1个月的女运动员与法尔斯省的职业游泳运动员进行了比较。她们的平均抑郁得分分别为10.5和6.5。这种差异也具有显著性。我们得出结论，运动与贝克抑郁量表较低的平均得分相关。
