title: 'Normal' and 'lesional' traits of personality according to Sjöbring: re-tatings and prognostic implications. The Lundby project.
abstract: As a supplement to findings made in two studies of the same rural population with a 10-year interval, the 'reliablity' of various subjective ratings of normal personality was looked into: the variants in validity, solidity, and stability as described by Sjobring. In addition the findings of Hagnell, according to which the above-mentioned normal variants of personality hardly influenced first incidence of mental disorder during the period of observation, while so-called 'lesional' variants did, were further investigated and confirmed.
