[Studies on the personality structure of patients with myoarthropathy].
A group of test patients afflicted with myoarthropathy was compared by psychological tests to a control group and was shown to differ significantly in their personality. The differences: the group of patients shows a stronger disturbance of general psychosomatic behaviour. There is no evidence of open aggressivity, on the other hand the patients are irritable, easily disappointed and concerned and generally depressive. This picture is rounded off by the "typical female selfdescription" in Scale 12. The investigation shows that "primarily" somatic patients should be, in greater measure, considered from the aspect of psychohygiene or psychotherapy.
