  • Continuing female predominance in depressive illness

    Andrew C Leon, Gerald L Klerman et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health1993Citada por: 1Referências: 25

The study sample, a high-risk group from the National Institute of Mental Health Collaborative Study on the Psychobiology of Depression, includes 2000 first-degree relatives of probands with affective disorder. The age-specific incidence rates were analyzed to determine the effect of gender, age, period, and coho…

  • Comparison of Psychiatric Screening Tests in a General Medical Setting Using ROC Analysis

    Grace Wyshak, Arthur J Barsky et al.ARTICLEMedical Care1991

    Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to evaluate the usefulness of three self-administered screening instruments in helping primary care physicians detect anxiety and depressive disorders. This research was secondary to an investigation of hypochondriasis. The three tests were the Whitely Index (WI), the Somatosensory Amplification Scale (SAS), and the Somatic Symptom Inventory (SSI). Participating subjects were 75 patients s…

  • Increasing Rates of Depression

    Gerald L KlermanARTICLEJAMA1989

    Several recent, large epidemiologic and family studies suggest important temporal changes in the rates of major depression: an increase in the rates in the cohorts born after World War II; a decrease in the age of onset with an increase in the late teenaged and early adult years; an increase between 1960 and 1975 in the rates of depression for all ages; a persistent gender effect, with the risk of depression consistently two to three times higher…

  • Efficacy of a Brief Psychosocial Intervention for Symptoms of Stress and Distress Among Patients in Primary Care

    Gerald L Klerman, Simon H Budman et al.ARTICLEMedical Care1987

    Psychosocial problems and symptoms of emotional distress play a prominent role in patients reporting to primary care settings. Interpersonal counseling (IPC) was developed as a brief psychosocial intervention for patients with stress and distress to be administered by nurse practitioners in a primary care setting. The results of a pilot study indicate more rapid reduction of symptoms and improvement in emotional symptoms and psychosocial function…

  • The Effects of Antihypertensive Therapy on the Quality of Life

    Sydney H Croog, Sol Levine et al.ARTICLENew England Journal of Medicine1986

    We conducted a multicenter randomized double-blind clinical trial among 626 men with mild to moderate hypertension to determine the effects of captopril, methyldopa, and propranolol on their quality of life. Hydrochlorothiazide was added if needed to control blood pressure. After a 24-week treatment period, all three groups had similar blood-pressure control, although fewer patients taking propranolol required hydrochlorothiazide. Patients taking…

  • Medical and Psychiatric Determinants of Outpatient Medical Utilization

    Arthur J Barsky, Grace Wyshak et al.ARTICLEMedical Care1986

    Ninety-two general medical outpatients were surveyed with an interview, questionnaires, and a medical record review to investigate the relationships among psychiatric disorder (depression and hypochondriasis), somatic symptoms, medical morbidity, and the utilization of ambulatory medical services. Medical utilization correlated with the number of somatic symptoms reported (r = 0.49, P = 0.0001), depressive symptoms (r = 0.34, P = 0.001), and the …

  • Facial Electromyography in the Assessment of Improvement in Depression

    Gary E Schwartz, Paul L Fair et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1978

    Depressed patients who showed decreases in resting corrugator muscle tension levels, as measured electromyographically, also showed improvement in clinical symptoms, as assessed by the Hamilton Psychiatric Rating Scale over a 2-week period. Patients showing good clinical improvement after 2 weeks had resting pretreatment corrugator levels higher than those showing little clinical improvement, suggesting that corrugator activity might also serve a…

  • Measuring the interventions used in the short-term interpersonal psychotherary of depression

    Carlos Neu, Stan Sclaroff et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Orthopsychiatry1978Referências: 9

The psychotherapy techniques are described, and the methodology for measuring these techniques is presented. These are illustrated with the findings of the collaborative Boston-New Haven project

  • A Measure of Interpersonal Dependency

    Robert M A Hirschfeld, Gerald L Klerman et al.ARTICLEJournal of Personality Assessment1977

    Interpersonal dependency refers to a complex of thoughts, beliefs, feelings, and behaviors revolving around needs to associate closely with valued other people. Its conceptual sources include the psychoanalytic theory of object relations, social learning theories of dependency, and the ethological theory of attachment. A review of existing self-report inventories revealed none that adequately assessed interpersonal dependency. A new 48-item self-…

  • Facial Expression and Imagery in Depression

    Gary E Schwartz, Paul L Fair et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine1976

    When subjects are instructed to self-generate happy, sad, and angry imagery, discrete patterns of facial muscle activity can be detected using electromyographic (EMG) procedures. Prior research from this laboratory suggests that depressed subjects show attenuated facial EMG patterns during imagery conditions, particularly during happy imagery. In the present experiment, 12 depressed subjects and 12 matched normals were requested to generate happy…
