理论模型试图解释为什么女性患抑郁症的人数大约是男性的两倍,这往往涉及到压力性生活事件的作用。然而,详细的经验证据表明,抑郁症发病前的生活事件的性别差异率是缺乏的,部分原因是由于普遍使用的清单评估的压力,已被证明具有良好的有效性。本研究报告的合并样本的375人来自4项研究,其中所有参与者被诊断为重度抑郁症,并与生活事件和困难的时间表,一个国家的最先进的背景下的采访和生活压力评级系统进行评估。女性抑郁症发病前的严重和非严重、独立和依赖、以他人为中心和以受试者为中心的生活事件明显多于男性。此外,这些关系显着缓和的年龄,这样的性别差异的比率大多数类型的事件主要是在青年成年。这些结果进行了讨论,在了解抑郁症的压力生活事件的病因作用的影响。
Theoretical models attempting to explain why approximately twice as many women as men suffer from depression often involve the role of stressful life events. However, detailed empirical evidence regarding gender differences in rates of life events that precede onset of depression is lacking, due in part to the common use of checklist assessments of stress that have been shown to possess poor validity. The present study reports on a combined sample of 375 individuals drawn from 4 studies in which all participants were diagnosed with major depressive disorder and assessed with the Life Events and Difficulties Schedule, a state-of-the-art contextual interview and life stress rating system. Women reported significantly more severe and nonsevere, independent and dependent, and other-focused and subject-focused life events prior to onset of depression than did men. Further, these relations were significantly moderated by age, such that gender differences in rates of most types of events were found primarily in young adulthood. These results are discussed in term of their implications for understanding the etiological role of stressful life events in depression.
