54 English and 52 Swedish patients suffering from primary depressive illness were rated on the full 65 item CPRS scale to examine cross cultural differences. The correlation of the frequencies of items scored in the different patient samples was highly significant (r = 0.88). Of the most commonly scored items (occurring in more than 70% of any of the patient groups) 17 were common to both samples. The three items not in common for the two centres are compared and discussed. The inter rater reliabilities of the Swedish and English teams are compared alongside the inter rater reliabilities of a Swedish rater and an English rater on English patients and are generally good. The remarkable similarity of the psychopathology of primary depressive illness in both cultures and some of the implications are discussed.
对54名患有原发性抑郁症的英国患者和52名瑞典患者进行了完整的65项CPRS量表评分，以研究跨文化差异。不同患者样本中得分项目的频率相关性非常显著（r = 0.88）。在最常得分的项目（在任何患者组中出现超过70%）中，有17项在两个样本中都很常见。对两个中心不共有的三个项目进行了比较和讨论。比较了瑞典和英国团队的评分者间信度以及瑞典评分者和英国评分者对英国患者的评分者间信度，总体良好。讨论了两种文化中原发性抑郁症精神病理学的显著相似性及其一些影响。
