This paper reports a positive association between demographic variables and Canter BIP diagnostic classification. Ss are 209 middle-aged men and include psychiatric and medical patients and non-patients. To evaluate the joint effects of the demographic variables, a discriminate analysis was performed on the total sample. Race and educational level alone predicted BIP diagnosis in 67% of the cases. While none of the demographic variables was related significantly to BIP diagnosis when a discriminate analysis was performed on whites alone, age and educational level were related significantly to BIP diagnosis when a discriminate analysis was performed on blacks alone.
本文报告了人口统计学变量与坎特BIP诊断分类之间的正相关关系。研究对象为209名中年男性，包括精神科患者、内科患者和非患者。为评估人口统计学变量的联合效应，对整个样本进行了判别分析。仅种族和教育水平就能在67%的病例中预测BIP诊断。当仅对白人进行判别分析时，没有一个人口统计学变量与BIP诊断显著相关；而当仅对黑人进行判别分析时，年龄和教育水平与BIP诊断显著相关。
