摘要

嗅觉表现与特定人格特征(如厌恶倾向)以及特定精神障碍症状(如抑郁症)之间的相关性已在许多成人研究中被发现。目前的问卷研究调查了在儿童时期是否已经存在类似的关联。对66名7 ~ 11岁儿童(男32名，女34名)的嗅觉辨别能力进行了测试。此外，孩子们还填写了筛选问卷，以评估与抑郁、各种焦虑障碍(如惊恐障碍、社交焦虑障碍)和厌恶倾向相关的症状的严重程度。以嗅觉表现为判据变量，问卷得分为预测变量，进行多元回归分析。结果表明，抑郁倾向和厌恶倾向与嗅觉辨别能力呈负相关。此外，高水平的社交焦虑和低水平的恐慌症状被发现是嗅觉表现的积极预测因素。这项调查确定了儿童嗅觉表现和情感症状之间的特殊联系。建议将来对儿童样本(患有焦虑症、抑郁症的儿童)进行检测。

Association Between Olfactory Performance and Affective Symptoms in Children

Correlations between olfactory performance and particular personality traits (e.g., disgust proneness), as well as symptoms of specific mental disorders (e.g., depression) have been found in numerous studies with adults. The present questionnaire study examined whether similar associations already exist in childhood.

The olfactory discrimination ability of 66 children (32 boys and 34 girls aged between 7 and 11?years) was tested. In addition, the children filled out screening questionnaires to assess the severity of symptoms related to depression, various anxiety disorders (e.g., panic disorder, social anxiety disorder), and disgust proneness. A multiple regression analysis was calculated with olfactory performance as criterion variable and questionnaire scores as predictor variables.

The results showed that depression and disgust proneness were negatively associated with olfactory discrimination ability. Moreover, high levels of social anxiety and low levels of panic symptoms were found to be positive predictors of olfactory performance.

This investigation identified specific associations between olfactory performance and affective symptoms in children.

Future tests with pediatric samples (children with anxiety disorders, depression) are recommended.
