[Calculation by Supprian of the phase calendar of endogenous depressions--a statistical artifact?]
Abstract:
According to Supprian (10, 13, 14) the postulate of internal desynchronisation of drive and mood is a necessary condition for the estimation of the time-structure of endogenous depression. This hypothesis could not be substantiated in a longitudinal study of four depressive patients. A subsequent reanalysis of data, published by Supprian (13) contradicts the central postulate of internal desynchronisation. A critical review of other publications (10, 11, 14) suggests the assumption that the statistical analysis of this data might be erroneous too.

Graphical and Analytic Representation of Sinusoids
The first step is measuring the peak-to-peak value, which is twice the amplitude of the sinusoid. This provides information about the maximum voltage swing of the waveform.
Secondly, the period and angular frequency are determined. The period is the time taken for one complete cycle of the waveform, while...
