恢复性活动的限制会延长慢性压力，并可能加剧抑郁症状。我们将反季节天气视为户外恢复活动的生态限制，研究了瑞典寒冷的夏季气温与选择性血清素再摄取抑制剂（SSRI）的分配之间的关系。我们获得了 1991 年至 1998 年间每月分配的 SSRI 规定日剂量的全国汇总数据。我们使用自回归、集成、移动平均时间序列建模方法分析了数据。 SSRIs 的使用量与假期高峰期 7 月的月平均气温呈负相关。该协会适用于男性和女性，扣除趋势、季节性和其他统计控制。受限恢复假说增强了对抑郁症的反应方式、受限活动和季节性解释。该研究为绿色空间和其他户外环境作为心理健康资源提供了新颖的视角。 (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. 保留所有权利。
Constraint of restorative activities prolongs chronic stress and may exacerbate depressive symptoms. Treating unseasonable weather as an ecological constraint on restorative activities in outdoor settings, we investigated the relationship between cold summer temperatures and the dispensation of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) in Sweden. We obtained nationally aggregated data on defined daily doses of SSRIs dispensed monthly from 1991 through 1998. We analyzed the data using autoregressive, integrated, moving average time-series modeling methods. Dispensation of SSRIs correlated negatively with monthly mean temperature for July, the peak vacation period. The association held for both men and women, net of trends, seasonality, and other statistical controls. The constrained restoration hypothesis augments response style, restricted activity and seasonality explanations for depression. The study provides a novel perspective on green spaces and other outdoor settings as mental health resources. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
