The personality characteristics of 77 patients seen in general practice with a Catego diagnosis of anxiety state (including phobic state) or depressive neurosis derived from the Present State Examination were compared with those in 77 normal subjects chosen at random from the list of the same general practitioner. Each patient was matched with a normal subject of the same age and sex. The personality characteristics were rated using the Personality Assessment Schedule, an interview schedule designed to elicit the premorbid personality of the subject. The neurotic patients had significantly higher scores for the personality charcteristics of anxiousness, vulnerability, resourcelessness, hypochondriasis and other features commonly described as oral and hysterical. Schizoid features were absent in the neurotic group. The results suggest that there are common personality attributes in neurotic disorder and that these have clinical significance.
对77例根据《现况检查》诊断为焦虑状态（包括恐怖状态）或抑郁性神经症的全科门诊患者的人格特征，与从同一位全科医生的名单中随机挑选的77名正常受试者的人格特征进行了比较。每位患者与一名年龄和性别相同的正常受试者进行匹配。使用《人格评估量表》对人格特征进行评分，该量表是一种访谈量表，旨在引出受试者病前的人格。神经症患者在焦虑、易感性、无助感、疑病症以及其他通常被描述为口欲期和癔症性的特征方面得分显著更高。神经症组中没有分裂样特征。结果表明，神经症障碍存在共同的人格特质，且这些特质具有临床意义。
