本文回顾和更新了美国和国外关于抑郁症和性别关系的主要研究结果。它还考虑了世界卫生组织的一些评估工具,这些工具可能会澄清抑郁症与性别之间的关系及其跨文化影响。随着心理学跨越国界的融合,以及性别成为国内和国际心理学研究的一个变量,性别及其与抑郁状态的关系正成为人们感兴趣和关注的焦点。
This article reviews and updates major research findings on depressive disorders and gender relationships in the United States and abroad. It also considers some of the World Health Organization's assessment instruments that may clarify the relationship between depression and gender and its cross-cultural ramifications. With psychology converging across national boundaries and with gender being a variable in psychological research both nationally and internationally, gender and its relationship to depressive states is emerging as a focal point of interest and concern.
