Data selected from comprehensive EP studies of a large sample of psychiatric patients and nonpatients illustrate the point that matching patient and control populations for age and gender is essential, but not sufficient, to control for these subject variables. It is necessary to test for the interactions resulting from different relationships between EP measures and gender and/or age in different diagnostic groups and to examine differences between subgroups defined by gender and age.
从大量精神疾病患者和非患者的综合脑电图研究中选取的数据表明，在年龄和性别方面对患者和对照人群进行匹配对于控制这些主体变量而言至关重要，但并不充分。有必要检验不同诊断组中脑电图测量与性别和/或年龄之间不同关系所产生的相互作用，并研究按性别和年龄定义的亚组之间的差异。
