A study of the personality styles seen in individuals having irritable bowel syndrome was done in a group of 82 patients with this diagnosis. An objective personality test, the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory, was administered to the irritable bowel syndrome patient group to produce individual profiles for each patient. The 82 profiles were subjected to q-factor analysis resulting in four subgroupings of the original sample. Titles used to describe the personalities seen in the four groups included: inadequate dependency; somatization of affect; reactive depression; and 4) anger and denial. Future studies on the behavioral treatment of irritable bowel syndrome patients may well include a personality inventory as a consideration of how irritable bowel syndrome patients have different personality styles.
对一组82名被诊断为肠易激综合征的患者的人格类型进行了研究。对肠易激综合征患者组进行了一项客观的人格测试——明尼苏达多相人格调查表，以生成每位患者的个人档案。对这82份档案进行了q因子分析，从而对原始样本进行了四个亚组划分。用于描述这四组中所观察到的人格的标题包括：依赖不足；情感躯体化；反应性抑郁；以及愤怒与否认。未来关于肠易激综合征患者行为治疗的研究很可能会将人格调查表作为一个考量因素，以探讨肠易激综合征患者如何具有不同的人格类型。
