关于抑郁症的非专业信仰的研究表明,抑郁症康复者认为他们的抑郁经历比那些从未经历过抑郁症的人更痛苦。这项研究测试了抑郁症史是否会影响对他人抑郁症经历的信念。患有抑郁症的成年人(n= 63)和从未患有抑郁症的成年人(n= 64)完成了自我评估问卷(R-SAQ; J.C. Coyne & M.M. Calarco,1995年)修订,以解决他人的抑郁症的经验的看法。抑郁史与R-SAQ评分无关。在补充分析中,自我报告的抑郁倾向也与对他人抑郁的看法无关。没有严重抑郁症病史的人同样可能认识到抑郁症对他人的高度削弱性。虽然非抑郁症患者经常无法向抑郁症患者的朋友或亲戚表达同情,但这种失败可能并不反映他们缺乏抑郁症会使人丧失能力的知识。© 2006 Wiley Periodicals,Inc.

Research on lay beliefs about depression has shown that recovered‐depressed people evaluate theirowndepressive experiences as more distressing than do those who have never experienced major depression. This study tested whether history of depression would influence beliefs aboutothers' experiences of depression. Recovered‐depressed (n= 63) and never‐depressed adults (n= 64) completed the Self‐Appraisal Questionnaire (R‐SAQ; J.C. Coyne & M.M. Calarco, 1995) revised to address perceptions of others' experiences of depression. History of depression was not associated with R‐SAQ scores. In supplementary analyses, self‐reported depression proneness was also uncorrelated with perceptions of others' depression. People without a history of major depression were just as likely to recognize the highly debilitating nature of depression for others. Although nondepressed people frequently fail to convey empathy to friends or relatives who are depressed, this failure probably does not reflect lack of knowledge that depression is incapacitating. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
