自传体记忆特异性（AMS）降低是抑郁症的一个重要认知标志，通常通过自传体记忆测试来测量（AMT；Williams & Broadbent，1986）。 AMT 被广泛使用，但过度依赖单一的 AMS 评估方法是该领域的局限性。目前的研究调查了记忆叙事作为 AMS 的替代衡量标准，在本科生样本中选择了抑郁症状高或低的样本 (N=55)。我们采用多种方法设计来比较基于叙述和基于 AMT 的 AMS 测量。参与者生成了个人重要的自定义记忆叙述，并完成了两个版本的 AMT（有和没有检索特定记忆的指令）。在完整样本中，自我定义记忆叙述中的较高 AMS 与两个版本的 AMT 表现中较高的 AMS 相关，并且在低度和高度烦躁参与者中，不同 AMS 测量之间的关系模式通常相似。此外，自我定义记忆叙事中的 AMS 与抑郁症状水平前瞻性相关。具体来说，在 10 周的随访中，自我定义记忆叙述中 AMS 的增加预示着抑郁症状会减少，并且高于基线症状水平。讨论了对未来研究和临床应用的影响。
Reduced autobiographical memory specificity (AMS) is an important cognitive marker in depression that is typically measured with the Autobiographical Memory Test (AMT; Williams & Broadbent, 1986). The AMT is widely used, but the over-reliance on a single methodology for assessing AMS is a limitation in the field. The current study investigated memory narratives as an alternative measure of AMS in an undergraduate student sample selected for being high or low on a measure of depressive symptoms (N=55). We employed a multi-method design to compare narrative- and AMT-based measures of AMS. Participants generated personally significant self-defining memory narratives, and also completed two versions of the AMT (with and without instructions to retrieve specific memories). Greater AMS in self-defining memory narratives correlated with greater AMS in performance on both versions of the AMT in the full sample, and the patterns of relationships between the different AMS measures were generally similar in low and high dysphoric participants. Furthermore, AMS in self-defining memory narratives was prospectively associated with depressive symptom levels. Specifically, greater AMS in self-defining memory narratives predicted fewer depressive symptoms at a 10-week follow-up over and above baseline symptom levels. Implications for future research and clinical applications are discussed.
