The present study examined the psychobiological Temperament and Character model of personality on obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) patients, as well as the relation of temperament and/or character dimensions on the severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms.
Fifty-four subjects diagnosed with OCD, were assessed with the Temperament and Character Inventory, the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive scale and the Hamilton Rating Scales for depression and anxiety.
Compared with controls, OCD subjects displayed increased harm avoidance and lower self-directedness and cooperativeness. Low self-directedness and high Hamilton depression scores were associated with increased severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms.
The Temperament and Character profile of OCD patients characterized in the present study was in agreement with previous reports using the same personality model and can be linked to some of their behavioral features. Furthermore, our data provides support of the influence that some personality traits may have on the severity of OCD symptoms.
本研究考察了人格的心理生物学气质与性格模型在强迫症（OCD）患者中的情况，以及气质和/或性格维度与强迫症状严重程度之间的关系。
对54名被诊断为强迫症的受试者进行了气质与性格量表、耶鲁-布朗强迫症量表以及汉密尔顿抑郁和焦虑评定量表的评估。
与对照组相比，强迫症受试者表现出更高的回避伤害性，以及更低的自我导向性和合作性。低自我导向性和高汉密尔顿抑郁得分与强迫症状严重程度增加相关。
本研究中所描述的强迫症患者的气质与性格特征与先前使用相同人格模型的报告一致，并且可以与他们的一些行为特征联系起来。此外，我们的数据支持了某些人格特质可能对强迫症症状严重程度产生影响的观点。
