Scores on the Children's Depression Inventory (CDI) for 103 affective and 125 conduct disordered psychiatric inpatients aged 6-17 were subjected to cluster analysis of variables using average linkage (with arccosine transformation) as a means of investigating differences in CDI response patterns between the two groups. Both vertical (hierarchical) and horizontal (nested) clusters were examined. The investigation indicated hierarchical clusters for the affective disordered group dealing with sadness and isolation, a negative self-image, and self-loathing. For the conduct disordered group, clusters centered hierarchically around a defeated attitude, being upset, not having fun anymore and not wanting to be with other people, and difficulty with academic performance.
对103名患有情感障碍和125名患有品行障碍的6至17岁精神病住院儿童进行了儿童抑郁量表（CDI）评分，并使用平均连锁法（经反余弦转换）对变量进行聚类分析，以此研究两组儿童在CDI反应模式上的差异。同时检查了垂直（分层）聚类和水平（嵌套）聚类。调查表明，情感障碍组的分层聚类涉及悲伤与孤独、消极的自我形象以及自我厌恶。对于品行障碍组，聚类分层围绕挫败态度、心烦意乱、不再有乐趣且不想与他人相处，以及学习成绩困难展开。
