设计了一种自评抑郁量表，试图对抑郁症状进行量化，将普遍存在的抑郁情绪及其生理和心理伴随症状作为测试项目，采用相关诊断标准。被诊断为抑郁症的患者在治疗前后该量表的平均指数分别为0.74和0.39。最初被诊断为抑郁症但最终被诊断为其他疾病而出院的患者平均指数为0.53。对照组的平均指数为0.33。就诊断和作为预后指标而言，睡眠障碍的存在似乎是抑郁症中一个重要的（即使不是最重要的）症状。如先前报道的那样，对抑郁症患者的临床评估、他们的自评抑郁指数以及他们在睡眠期间对听觉刺激的脑电图（EEG）反应之间似乎存在高度相关性。
A self-rating depression scale was devised as an attempt to quant it ate the symptoms of depression, using the diagnostic criteria of the presence of a pervasive depressed affect, and its physiological and psychological concomitants as test items. Mean indices achieved on the scale for patients diagnosed as depressive disorders, before and after treatment were 0.74 and 0.39, respectively. The mean index of patients who were initially diagnosed as depressive disorder, but discharged as other disorder was 0.53. The mean index for the control group was 0.33. The presence of sleep disturbance appears to be an important, if not the most important symptom in depressive disorder, with respect to diagnosis and as a prognostic sign. There appears to be a high correlation of clinical evaluation of patients for the presence of depressive disorders, their self-rating depression indices, and their electroencephalogram (EEG) responses to auditory stimulation during sleep as reported previously.
