Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between the severity of the depressive syndrome and the occurrence of diurnal mood variation. Several authors have proposed that diurnal variations of mood cease in the severest states of depression. By contrast, others suggest a rhythm-inducing effect of depression. We could not find any correlation between the severity of depression and various measures of diurnal mood variation in a group of 70 patients. These findings are discussed against the background of chronobiological hypotheses.

摘要

本研究调查了抑郁综合征的严重程度与日间情绪变化发生之间的关系。几位作者提出，在最严重的抑郁状态下，情绪的日间变化会停止。相比之下，其他人则认为抑郁有诱导节律的作用。在一组70名患者中，我们未能发现抑郁严重程度与日间情绪变化的各种测量指标之间存在任何相关性。将在生物钟学假设的背景下对这些发现进行讨论。
