对老年门诊患者进行评估，以明确抑郁症状与身体疾病、残疾、疼痛和选定的社会心理变量之间的关系。进行了三种类型的评估：(1)医生的医学评估，(2)自我报告的抑郁症状和身体健康状况，以及(3)与参与者生活环境有关的人口统计学和社会心理数据。客观的（医生评定的疾病症状）和主观的（自我报告的健康状况、活动限制和止痛药的使用）健康指标都可以解释抑郁症状的独立差异。在控制了这些因素之后，额外的方差可以用与健康相关的担忧（例如，医疗费用，服务需求），社会支持和“其他担忧”（例如，感觉无用，成为他人的负担）来解释。（PsycINFO数据库记录(c) 2016 APA，版权所有）
Elderly outpatients were assessed to clarify relations between symptoms of depression and physical illness, disability, pain, and selected psychosocial variables. Three types of assessments were made:(1) medical evaluations by physicians,(2) self-reported symptoms of depression and physical health, and (3) demographic and psychosocial data relating to participants' life circumstances. Both objective (physician-rated illness symptoms) and subjective (self-reported health, activity restriction, and use of pain medications) indicators of health accounted for independent variance in symptoms of depression. After controlling for these factors, additional variance was explained by health-related concerns (eg, health care expenses, service needs), social support, and" other worries"(eg, feeling useless, becoming a burden to others).(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
