The group of patients studied consisted of 65 persons with duodenal acid-peptic disease, 41 persons with ulcerative colitis and 72 healthy subject as a control group. The results obtained presented in a graphical manner reflected the psychological differences between above groups. Patients with ulcerative colitis were characterized by an increased fineness, sensibility or emotionality whereas those with duodenal acid-peptis disease selected adjectives indicating the lowered ability of self-control and of control on other people when compared with health subjects.
