Gerald Klerman (1928-1992) made substantial contributions to diagnosis and classification in psychiatry during a time of great change. He understood and appreciated the importance of descriptive, biological, psychoanalytic, social, interpersonal and behavioral approaches and was uniquely able to integrate them cogently. He demanded that theories and hypotheses be tested empirically, and he spearheaded many key scientific research programs directed toward this goal, including the Clinical Studies of the National Institute of Mental Health Program on the Psychobiology of Depression. This article provides an overview of his contributions.
杰拉尔德·克莱曼(1928 - 1992)在一个变革的时代为精神病学的诊断和分类做出了重大贡献。他理解并重视描述性、生物学、精神分析、社会、人际和行为学方法的重要性,并且特别能够令人信服地将它们整合起来。他要求理论和假设要经过实证检验,并且他带头开展了许多旨在实现这一目标的关键科学研究项目,包括美国国立精神卫生研究所抑郁症心理生物学项目的临床研究。本文概述了他的贡献。
