情感障碍的主次区分被认为是为了减少抑郁症的异质性。对抑郁症、阿片类药物成瘾者、酗酒者和精神分裂症患者继发性抑郁的发生率及其性质进行了调查。研究结果表明，继发性抑郁症在门诊患者中伴有其他精神障碍是相对常见的。继发性抑郁症的社会人口学特征与其来源人群是一致的，但与原发性抑郁症患者不同。继发性抑郁者的症状模式与原发性抑郁者相似，但总体上没有那么严重。这些发现进一步支持了在未来的研究中区分继发性抑郁症和原发性抑郁症的价值。
The primary-secondary distinction in affective disorders has been proposed to reduce the heterogeneity of depression. An investigation of the frequency of secondary depression and its nature in depressed opiate addicts, alcoholics, and schizophrenics was undertaken. Findings show that secondary depression in ambulatory patients with other psychiatric disorders is relatively common. The sociodemographic characteristics of the secondary depressive are consistent with the population from which they derive but differ from primary depressives. The symptom patterns of secondary depressives are similar to primary depressives but are overall less severe. These findings give further support to the value of separating out secondary from primary depression in future research studies.
