[The use of TV-technique for a quantitative evaluation of the longitudinal psychopathological profile (author's transl)].
19 depressed patients were treated with viloxazine (n = 9) or amitriptyline (n = 10) in a double-blind trial. TV-tapes produced for each patient on day 0, 10 and 20 were analyzed with respect to the global intensity of depression and to 4 other verbal or averbal psychopathological parameters by 4 independent raters under the condition of a time-blind analysis. Global intensity of depression, prosodic, depressive contents of experience, and psychomotoric inhibition were found decreased between day 0 and day 10 for the viloxazine group, and between day 10 and day 20 for the amitriptyline-group. The accuracy of judgement of agitation was the lowest one.
