Stability of the sociodemographic variance of the Type A behavior pattern found in a previous study was studied 3 years later in the same subjects, 1,333 adolescents and young adults. The Type A behavior questionnaire for the Finnish Multicenter Study and the Hunter-Wolf A-B Rating Scale were used to measure Type A behavior. The previous finding, that the results are highly dependent on the method used, was confirmed, and the stability of the findings assessed by the same method was high. The results confirm the previous suggestion that Type A behavior is not indisputably a pattern characterizing male, urban, and middle-to-upper economic and educational subgroups; the interactions among different sociodemographic variables are more complex.
三年后，对之前研究中所涉及的1333名青少年和青年成年人这同一批受试者，就A型行为模式的社会人口统计学差异的稳定性展开了研究。采用芬兰多中心研究的A型行为问卷以及亨特-沃尔夫A-B评定量表来测量A型行为。之前的研究发现，即结果高度依赖于所使用的方法，得到了证实，并且通过相同方法评估的研究结果稳定性很高。这些结果证实了之前的推测，即A型行为并非毫无争议地是一种表征男性、城市以及经济和教育水平处于中上阶层亚组的模式；不同社会人口统计学变量之间的相互作用更为复杂。
