The purpose of this study was to measure, using the method of limits, the ascending-descending threshold difference, Δ = fa - fd, in subjects with major depression. 28 patients were given two sessions, one before treatment and the other after recovery. Mean values of Δ measured in the second session were significantly smaller than those scored before treatment. The two sets of values were positively correlated. The ascending-descending threshold difference was suggested previously as likely related to the internal subjective judgment of subjects. The present results are consistent with the hypothesis of a more conservative response criterion in depressed patients before than after clinical improvement.
