来自具有全国代表性的普通人群样本的数据被用来研究DSM-III-R重度抑郁发作(MDE)患病率的队列差异。我们记录了在最近的队列中，男性和女性中MDE终生患病率的增加，但在调查中回顾的40年期间，性别比没有重大变化。我们在12个月的MDE中发现了队列差异，老年女性比老年男性更有可能反复发作。这种复发方面的性别差异是45-54岁年龄段女性抑郁症12个月患病率高于男性的重要原因。
Data from a nationally representative sample of the general population are used to study cohort differences in the prevalence of DSM-III-R Major Depressive Episode (MDE). We document increasing lifetime prevalence of MDE among both men and women in more recent cohorts, but no major change in the sex ratio over the 40-year period retrospectively covered in the survey. We find a cohort difference in 12-month MDE, with older women much more likely than older men to have recurrent episodes. This sex difference in recurrence plays an important part in the elevated 12-month prevalence of depression among women compared to men in the 45-54 age range.
