背景：抑郁症的昼夜节律变异性在“晚-早”维度方面尚未得到很好的表征。方法：采用Horne和Ostberg问卷测量的“晚性-早性”维度，在1617名被命名为“抑郁”的学生群体中进行了研究。采用BDI、GDS-SF、CESD三种抑郁量表测定“抑郁程度”。霍恩和奥斯特伯格问卷用于测量“晚睡-早睡”的程度。假设Horne和Ostberg问卷得分与抑郁量表之间存在显著负相关。因此，预计在被确定为“抑郁者”的参与者中，“夜猫子”的数量将明显高于“早起者”。结果：Horne和Ostberg问卷得分与3种抑郁量表的得分呈显著负相关（BDI r = - 0.174, GDS-SF r = - 0.182, CESD r = - 0.176，均p < 0.001）。此外，“抑郁”学生的“夜猫子”发生率明显高于“晨猫子”（chi(2) = 11.18, p < 0.01）。局限性：尚不确定这些数据在多大程度上适用于临床人群。结论：“抑郁”的大学生更有可能是夜猫子。(C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.版权所有
Background: Circadian variability in depression has not been well characterized with respect to the "eveningness-morningness" dimension. Methods: The "eveningness-morningness" dimension, as measured by the Horne and Ostberg questionnaire, was examined among a student population (n = 1617) that was named as "depressive". Three depression scales (BDI, GDS-SF, and CESD) were used to determine "depressiveness". The Horne and Ostberg questionnaire was used to measure the degree of "eveningness-morningness". It was hypothesized that there would be negative and significant correlations between the scores on the Horne and Ostberg questionnaire and the depression scales. Consequently, it was expected that there would be a significantly higher number of evening types than the morning types among the participants identified as "depressives". Results: There were significant, negative correlations between the Horne and Ostberg questionnaire scores and the responses on the 3 depression scales (for BDI r = -.174, GDS-SF r = -.182, CESD r = -.176, all p < .001). Also, a significantly higher incidence of evening types than of the morning types among the "depressive" students was found (chi(2) = 11.18, p < .01). Limitations: It is uncertain to what extent these data generalize to clinical populations. Conclusions: "Depressive" college students are more likely to be evening types.
