Psychologic personality features influenced the participation of male subjects, aged 40-59, from Kaunas, in preventive procedures aiming to control hypercholesterolemia within a many-factor prophylactic program against coronary heart disease (CHD). A negative attitude to the recommendation to give up smoking and change dietary habits and physical behavior, demonstrated prior to the first medical examination, was indicative of a tendency to abstain from preventive procedures. According to the first medical check-up data, the abstaining individuals showed signs of somatic discomfort and psychologic stress more frequently. Unlike the voluntary participants, they had more marked difficulties in psychologic adaptation as assessed by the MMPI scale. The effectiveness of cholesterol-controlling measures also depended on the psychological makeup of the personality. A lower MMPI profile prevailed in those men whose increased cholesterol levels were eventually controlled.
心理人格特征影响了来自考纳斯的40至59岁男性参与旨在在多因素冠心病预防计划中控制高胆固醇血症的预防程序。在首次体检之前，对戒烟、改变饮食习惯和身体行为建议的消极态度表明有避免预防程序的倾向。根据首次体检数据，回避者更频繁地表现出身体不适和心理压力的迹象。与自愿参与者不同，通过明尼苏达多相人格调查表（MMPI）量表评估，他们在心理适应方面有更明显的困难。胆固醇控制措施的有效性也取决于人格的心理构成。最终胆固醇水平升高得到控制的男性中，MMPI得分较低的情况更为普遍。
