目前这项研究的作者调查了严重的负性生活事件对双相情感障碍发作的康复时间的影响。虽然负性生活事件已被证明影响双相情感障碍的复发，但研究尚未集中于双相情感障碍的生活事件和康复。作者在住院期间招募了67名双相情感障碍患者，并进行了至少一年的月度评估。有严重负性生活事件的人康复所需的时间是没有严重生活事件的人的3倍多，生活事件的影响不是通过服药依从性来调节的。这些结果表明，心理社会环境可能在双相情感障碍的过程中发挥比以前生物学模型所暗示的更大的作用。
The authors of the current study examined the impact of severe negative life events on time to recovery from episodes of bipolar disorder. Although negative life events have been shown to influence relapse in bipolar disorder, research has not focused on life events and recovery in bipolar disorder. The authors recruited 67 individuals with bipolar disorder during hospitalization and conducted monthly assessments for at least 1 year. Individuals with severe negative life events took more than 3 times as long to achieve recovery as those without severe life events, and the impact of life events was not mediated by medication compliance. These results reveal that the psychosocial environment may play a much larger role in the course of bipolar disorder than previous biological models have suggested.
