Emphasis is placed on the opportunities and importance, at this time, of continuing with clinically oriented psychosomatic research. For instance, the multidimensional studies of sleep and of depression are beginning to throw new light on psychosomatic processes, and so too are the studies of life events and illness. Short-term prospective clinical investigations provide an attractive framework for such work and they can be complementary to long-term survey studies investigating relationships between constitutional characteristics including personality, and social conditions and disease. There are some useful new tools for measureing psychological characteristics.
此时应强调继续开展以临床为导向的心身研究的机会和重要性。例如，对睡眠和抑郁症的多维度研究开始为心身过程带来新的启示，生活事件与疾病的研究也是如此。短期前瞻性临床研究为这类工作提供了一个有吸引力的框架，并且它们可以补充长期调查研究，这些长期调查研究探讨包括人格在内的体质特征、社会状况与疾病之间的关系。有一些用于测量心理特征的有用新工具。
