Hypertensive and duodenal ulcer patients were compared with physically ill patients at admission and discharge on personality traits and states of anxiety and depression. Both the hypertensive and ulcer patients were less dominant and more anxious than the control group at admission, while depression differentiated only the hypertensive group. The hypertensive patients were more depressed and more anxious than the ulcer patients at admission. At discharge, both experimental groups remained less dominant than the control group and the hypertensives remained more anxious and more depressed than the ulcer and control groups. Low dominance was correlated with high blood pressure and high extrapunitiveness was correlated with E.C.G. abnormality in the hypertensive patients. The results are discussed with respect to the role of aggression and low dominance in these 'psychosomatic' disorders.
对高血压患者和十二指肠溃疡患者与身体疾病患者在入院和出院时的人格特质、焦虑状态和抑郁状态进行了比较。高血压患者和溃疡患者在入院时比对照组更缺乏主导性且更焦虑，而抑郁仅在高血压组中有所体现。高血压患者在入院时比溃疡患者更抑郁且更焦虑。出院时，两个实验组仍比对照组缺乏主导性，且高血压患者比溃疡患者和对照组更焦虑、更抑郁。在高血压患者中，低主导性与高血压相关，高外罚性与心电图异常相关。针对攻击和低主导性在这些“心身”疾病中的作用对结果进行了讨论。
