This study is a multimethod assessment of depressive features in a sample of 60 adolescent inpatients. The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship between self-report measures of depression and Rorschach variables commonly associated with depression. Patients represented a variety of diagnostic categories in order to determine whether information gathered through assessment instruments was related to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (3rd ed. [DSM-III], American Psychiatric Association, 1980) diagnoses of depression. Findings indicated that this sample of adolescents was highly defensive and emotionally constricted. There were several significant relationships between self-report measures and Rorschach indicators of depression. However, in general, the Rorschach variables were not strongly related to depression. The self-report measures were more accurate than Rorschach variables in discriminating between depressed and nondepressed subjects.
本研究采用多种方法对60名青少年住院患者样本的抑郁特征进行评估。该研究的目的是检验抑郁的自我报告测量与通常与抑郁相关的罗夏测试变量之间的关系。患者代表了各种诊断类别,以确定通过评估工具收集的信息是否与《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》(第3版[DSM-III],美国精神病学协会,1980年)的抑郁诊断相关。研究结果表明,该青少年样本具有高度防御性且情绪受限。自我报告测量与罗夏测试抑郁指标之间存在若干显著关系。然而,总体而言,罗夏测试变量与抑郁的关联并不强烈。在区分抑郁和非抑郁受试者方面,自我报告测量比罗夏测试变量更准确。
