The Seasonal Pattern Assessment Questionnaire (SPAQ) was administered to a sample of students, faculty, and staff at a large state university in central Texas. Estimated prevalence rates of winter seasonal affective disorder (SAD) and subsyndromal winter SAD (S-SAD) derived from their SPAQ responses were considerably higher than expected, given the relatively low latitude of the area. Generally consistent with earlier findings, women experienced greater seasonal change in mood and behavior than men, and older individuals experienced less seasonal change than younger individuals.
对德克萨斯州中部一所大型州立大学的学生、教师和工作人员样本进行了季节性模式评估问卷（SPAQ）调查。鉴于该地区纬度相对较低，根据他们对SPAQ的回答得出的冬季季节性情感障碍（SAD）和亚综合征冬季SAD（S-SAD）的估计患病率大大高于预期。总体上与早期研究结果一致，女性在情绪和行为上经历的季节性变化比男性更大，而年长者经历的季节性变化比年轻人更小。
