一项针对241名学龄前儿童的家长调查未能证明这一年龄段有任何严重的抑郁障碍。学龄前儿童严重抑郁障碍的患病率可能低于青春期前和青春期儿童；或者，可能需要修改DSM III[精神疾病诊断和统计手册III]关于6岁以下儿童严重抑郁的标准。然而，基于单一信息源的研究设计存在固有的缺陷。
A parental survey of 241 preschoolers failed to document any major depressive disorder in this age group. The prevalence of major depressive disorders in preschoolers may be less than that of prepubertal and adolescent children; alternatively, modifications of the DSM III [Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, III] Criteria for major depression in children under 6 yr of age may be warranted. However, there are shortcomings inherent in a study design based on a solitary source of information.
