title: [Changes in the tempo parameters of speech in the dynamics of depressions].
abstract: The paper is devoted to study of methods for evaluation of the state of depressive patients by the parameters characterizing the rate of their speech. It is found that elongation of mean durations of pauses and decrease of mean durations of clear speech at the height of pathologic process testify to the presence of depressive affect of anguish. Short pauses with long portions of clear speech are typical for the patients with affects of alarm. In the study of psychomotor disturbances of depressive patients it was shown that the motor component was the most reflected in such characteristic of the speech rate as mean duration of clear speech and the ideatory one--in mean duration of pauses. Analysis of speech rate characteristics confirmed the significance of the ideatory inhibition in diagnostics of alarm endogenous depressions and ideatory excitation at psychogenic variants.
