Mood seasonality: A cross-sectional study of subjects aged between 10 and 25 years
Abstract
Background Most of the earlier studies on mood seasonality were conducted in adults and there are few available data on children and adolescents. In two cross sectional surveys, we examined the role of age and gender on seasonal sensitivity in subjects aged 10 to 25 years.Methods In survey one, the Seasonal Pattern Assessment Questionnaire for Children and Adolescents (SPAQ-CA) was administered to 1709 subjects (845 females and 864 males) from 10 to 17 years. In survey two, the Seasonal Pattern Assessment Questionnaire (SPAQ) was administered to 1867 subjects (1061 females and 806 males) from 18 to 25 years.Results Only in survey one was a significant positive correlation found between age and Global Seasonality Score (GSS) (r=.29; p<.00001). Significant gender differences were found at age 14 years and above in survey one, and at all ages in survey two.Conclusions The results support the hypothesis that seasonal sensitivity is higher in female subjects.

In high or low latitudes, daylight exposure can also produce the added benefit of reducing seasonal affective disorder (SAD), a mood disorder that affects more adolescents than any other age group.

“Young people can experience Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), which can include a depressed mood, low motor activity, low energy levels, and reduced social activity (Tonetti et al., 2007); this could explain why chat room usage times were shorter than in other seasons.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
