A non-linear mathematical model for the computerized description of mood curves is presented. This model reaches a high goodness of fit to the real data and seems superior to a linear model recently proposed. Using this model in a computer program for describing the mood data of a large sample of psychiatric inpatients, significant and clinically meaningful group differences between the mood curves of schizophrenic, endogenous depressive, and neurotic depressive inpatients could be demonstrated. The application of this methodology might be helpful among others in the field of evaluative research.
提出了一种用于计算机化描述情绪曲线的非线性数学模型。该模型与实际数据具有高度的拟合优度,似乎优于最近提出的线性模型。在一个用于描述大量精神科住院患者情绪数据的计算机程序中使用该模型,可以证明精神分裂症、内源性抑郁症和神经症性抑郁症住院患者的情绪曲线之间存在显著且具有临床意义的组间差异。这种方法的应用在评估研究领域等方面可能会有所帮助。
