  • Beschreibung: Previous research has reported that people who feel at their peak in the evening are more prone to depression and affective disorders. In a sample of 194 undergraduate students (54 men, 140 women; M age = 21.6 yr., SD = 1.4), using a simple correlational design, describing oneself as an evening person and scores on Horne and Óstberg's Morningness–Eveningess Scale were correlated with higher scores on measures of depression, hopelessness, defeat, and entrapment, but not with a report of past suicidal ideation or attempts, thereby supporting previous research findings.
