This study examined the sensitivity of a computerized neuropsychological screening (ImPACT) to the cognitive effects of depression in a sample of 20 students with suspected depression and 20 healthy university students matched for gender, age, and education. Students with depression had slower reaction times (p < .02; d = .82, large effect) and processing speeds (p < .03; d = .77, large effect). The brevity and sensitivity of ImPACT to the cognitive effects of depression warrants further research with psychiatric populations.
本研究在20名疑似患有抑郁症的学生和20名在性别、年龄和教育程度上相匹配的健康大学生样本中,检验了计算机化神经心理筛查(ImPACT)对抑郁症认知影响的敏感性。患有抑郁症的学生反应时间较慢(p < .02;d = .82,效果显著)且处理速度较慢(p < .03;d = .77,效果显著)。ImPACT对抑郁症认知影响的简洁性和敏感性值得在精神病患者群体中进一步研究。
