The paper incorporates five studies (i.e., four of frustration and one of anxiety). The design is 'Multi-group-Control-group'. Each one of the five studies has four '3 X 3 X 2' factorial experiments. Each experiment has 360 elements. These are three groups (of lepromatous, non-lepromatous and of disease-free normals). Each group consists of 120 elements (equally distributed among adolescents, adults and senescents). The particulars of the patients have been obtained from the Central JALMA Institute for Leprosy and the Kushta Seva Sadan (Agra). The disease-free normal elements are drawn freely from the population of the Agra town. The sample possesses statistical justification for size and representativeness. Data are collected with the help of reliable tools and the 'F' test is run for verification of the 'null hypotheses'. Results show that experiences of 'fixation-regression' frustration, atypically belong to normal senescence. Resignation and anxiety experiences, as growing hazards, specifically relate to leprosy patients. Personality factors that normally demote 'frustration-anxiety' behaviour exhibit 'role-negation' in the leprosy patients. Age shows 'role-reversion'. Implications of such 'role' changes relate to the 'self-eroding' process of personality in the patients.
该论文纳入了五项研究（即四项关于挫折感的研究和一项关于焦虑的研究）。设计为“多组-对照组”。五项研究中的每一项都有四个“3×3×2”析因实验。每个实验有360个样本。样本分为三组（瘤型麻风患者组、非瘤型麻风患者组和无病正常组）。每组由120个样本组成（在青少年、成年人和老年人中平均分布）。患者的详细信息来自中央贾尔马麻风病研究所和库什塔·塞瓦·萨丹（阿格拉）。无病正常组样本从阿格拉镇的人群中随机抽取。该样本在规模和代表性方面具有统计学依据。数据通过可靠的工具收集，并进行“F检验”以验证“零假设”。结果表明，“固着-退行”型挫折感体验非典型地属于正常衰老。顺从和焦虑体验作为日益增加的风险，尤其与麻风病患者相关。通常抑制“挫折-焦虑”行为的人格因素在麻风病患者中表现出“角色否定”。年龄表现出“角色反转”。这种“角色”变化的影响与患者人格的“自我侵蚀”过程有关。
