The relevance of a clinical diagnosis of depression for explaining the discrepant relationships of hopelessness and depression with suicidal ideation was studied. The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Hopelessness Scale (BHS), and the Scale for Suicide Ideation (SSI) were administered to 1,306 (72.8%) patients with at least one DSM-III-R mood disorder and 488 (27.3%) patients without any mood disorders. A multiple regression analysis was conducted, and hopelessness was 1.3 times more important than depression was for explaining suicidal ideation. The interactions of the BDI and BHS with diagnostic group were not significant.
研究了抑郁症临床诊断对于解释绝望感与抑郁症和自杀意念之间差异关系的相关性。对1306名（72.8%）至少患有一种DSM-III-R心境障碍的患者和488名（27.3%）无任何心境障碍的患者进行了贝克抑郁量表（BDI）、绝望感量表（BHS）和自杀意念量表（SSI）测评。进行了多元回归分析，结果表明，在解释自杀意念方面，绝望感比抑郁症重要1.3倍。BDI和BHS与诊断组之间的交互作用不显著。
