Twenty-four aircrew members with the diagnosis of vasovagal syncope were compared to 26 controls on variables of personality characteristics, psychosocial antecedents to the onset of their conditions, and hyperventilation experience. The syncope group was found to be younger, slightly less adaptable, and to have significantly more negative feelings about their work. The authors argue that syncope in aircrew should be considered from a psychosocial perspective as well as from a medical-neurological perspective.
将24名被诊断为血管迷走性晕厥的机组人员与26名对照组人员在人格特征变量、病情发作的社会心理诱因以及过度通气经历方面进行了比较。结果发现，晕厥组更年轻，适应能力稍弱，且对工作的负面情绪明显更多。作者认为，对于机组人员的晕厥，应从社会心理角度以及医学神经学角度进行考量。
