63 persons were examined by means of psychologic methods: 32 patients with surgical diseases of the abdomen and 30 healthy people. The results show that an increase of the level of anxiety as an emotional state is mostly caused by the somatic disease and situations connected with it. After operation, a statistically relevant regression of the results will occur in this scale. In the preoperative period the whole population of patients is characterized by an emotional lack of balance, viz. tendency to autoaggression and neurotic anxiety. In the post-operative period there was no decrease in all factors constituting the hypothetical sources of anxiety. In studies of surgical patients it is important to differentiate anxiety as a state and anxiety as a personal feature.
采用心理学方法对63人进行了检查：32例腹部外科疾病患者和30名健康人。结果表明，作为一种情绪状态，焦虑水平的升高主要是由躯体疾病及其相关情况引起的。术后，在该量表中会出现具有统计学意义的结果回归。术前，所有患者的特点是情绪失衡，即有自我攻击倾向和神经症性焦虑。术后，构成假设性焦虑源的所有因素均未减少。在对外科患者的研究中，区分作为一种状态的焦虑和作为一种个人特征的焦虑很重要。
