[Depression and electrodermal response measures in a habituation experiment. Results from over 400 depressed inpatients].
Depressed inpatients of the Weissenau Depression Treatment Unit take part in an over ten years unchanged psychophysiological habituation experiment with auditive stimuli to study their electrodermal reactivity. An overview on EDA-results of about 400 inpatients (ICD-9: 296.1/300.4/309.1, without delusional depression and without bipolar affective psychosis) is given. Women compared to men and also endogenous (ICD-9: 296.1) compared to psychogenic depression (ICD-9: 300.4/309.1) show significantly more non- and hypo-response.
