During the acute depressive episode, seasonal affective disorder (SAD) patients (N = 24) differ significantly from non-SAD major depressives (N = 17) on five of 13 personality variables measured, although severity of depression appears to be similar. SAD patients score significantly lower on the self-criticism and dependency dimensions of the Depressive Experiences Questionnaire (DEQ) and significantly higher on three personality trait scales (including schizotypal, narcissistic, and avoidant) of the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory (MCMI). Our data suggest that those with seasonal depression may represent a psychologically distinct subgroup of depressives.
在急性抑郁发作期间，季节性情感障碍（SAD）患者（N = 24）与非SAD重度抑郁症患者（N = 17）在13项测量的人格变量中的5项上存在显著差异，尽管抑郁严重程度似乎相似。SAD患者在抑郁体验问卷（DEQ）的自我批评和依赖维度上得分显著更低，而在米隆临床多轴问卷（MCMI）的三个人格特质量表（包括分裂型、自恋型和回避型）上得分显著更高。我们的数据表明，季节性抑郁症患者可能代表了抑郁症患者中一个心理上独特的亚组。
