The Independence of Neurotic and Endogenous Depression

Abstract

Response in therapy to imipramine, with some patients doing well and others poorly led to comparison on 35 clinical features including personality traits and present symptoms of 143 patients. Factor analyses strongly suggest that 2 factors are needed to account for the data. Clinical features which are significantly related to neurotic depression and those which are related to endogenous depression are reviewed. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2000 APA, all rights reserved)
