Psychogenic needs in depression. 1979

H Perris, and E Strandman

Thirty-eight depressed in- and outpatients at the Department of Psychiatry, Umeå University, were asked to complete a CMPS form concerning their psychogenic needs. The depression depth of these patients was then rated by a doctor who utilized selected items from the CPRS scale. The 38 patients were matched according to age and sex with 38 former depressed patients who had been investigated after recovery from a depressive syndrome to establish whether there is any correlation between psychogenic needs and severity of a depressive disorder and to determine whether these psychogenic needs depend on depression or are a more stable part of an individual's personality.
