title: [Word association test in myocardial infarct].
abstract: The distinguishing feature of associative reactions of patients with myocardial infarction is the marked predominance of egocentric response and the lesser variance of the reactions to critical verbal stimuli. As compared to patients with myocardial infarction and normal psychic condition and to healthy individuals, patients with psychopathological changes due to myocardial infarction gave disordered associative answers to emotionally meaningful verbal stimuli significantly more frequently and with a more marked affective coloration. These signs may serve in different diagnosis in appraising the psychic status of patients with myocardial infarction.
