家庭功能和抑郁症病程之间关系的报告很少。重要的是两个问题。首先,家庭对急性抑郁发作时采取何种方式,其次是家庭功能和病程的关系,家庭功能对急性期恢复的快慢程度及复发率的高低。文献报导对这一问题不能得出一致的结论。(Vaughn 等报告,家庭成员容易情绪外露者比不易外露在9个月内其复发次数要高3倍。但Goering 的结论不能证实这一点。Raunsarille 等证明婚姻破裂的次数减少是与8个月个别心理治疗后与抑郁症状改善和社会功能有关。其他可 There are few reports of the relationship between family functioning and the course of depression.
