The Seasonal Pattern Assessment Questionnaire is an instrument for retrospective self-rating of change in mood and vegetative functions with the seasons. It has been used in studies to identify and characterise patients with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) in three countries. In this paper, the test-retest reliability of all items and the sensitivity to differences between groups have been investigated. Clear differences were found between the SAD group and a normal group. A group of bipolar affective disorder patients had intermediate scores on reported seasonal changes between the normal and SAD groups. All groups reported significant changes in mood and vegetative functions during the winter in the direction symptomatic for SAD suggesting that SAD patients may suffer an exaggerated form of a normal seasonal variation.
季节性模式评估问卷是一种用于对随季节变化的情绪和植物神经功能进行回顾性自评的工具。它已在三个国家的研究中用于识别和描述季节性情感障碍(SAD)患者。在本文中,对所有项目的重测信度以及对组间差异的敏感性进行了研究。发现SAD组与正常组之间存在明显差异。一组双相情感障碍患者在报告的季节性变化方面得分介于正常组和SAD组之间。所有组均报告冬季情绪和植物神经功能有显著变化,且变化方向符合SAD的症状,这表明SAD患者可能患有正常季节性变化的一种夸张形式。
