Recent increase of depressive patients visiting psychiatric clinics have been attributed to social and other environmental factors including those related to work environment. A questionnaire study was carried out in a Tokyo-based company which manufactures desk calculators and other electronic devices, to investigate associations between psychiatric symptoms related to depression and 32 items on work and work environment. Depression was found associated with aforementioned clusters middle-aged employees and executives, whereas it showed little association in young employees, a result suggesting relative vulnerability of the former.
近期前往精神科诊所就诊的抑郁症患者增多，这被归因于社会和其他环境因素，包括与工作环境相关的因素。在东京一家生产台式计算器和其他电子设备的公司开展了一项问卷调查研究，以调查与抑郁症相关的精神症状与32项工作及工作环境项目之间的关联。研究发现，抑郁症与上述中年员工和管理人员群体有关，而在年轻员工中关联不大，这一结果表明前者相对更易患病。
