title: [Intro- and extraversion in patients with neuroses as factors differentiating the effect of diazepam on psychomotor function].
abstract: The influence of various diazepam doses on selected psychomotor functions in neurotic patients was studied with regard to introversion and extraversion. The group consisted of 110 patients randomly selected into diazepam group (60 cases) and placebo group (50 subjects). In each group introvertics (24 treated with diazepam and 13 with placebo) as well as extravertics (15 subjects receiving diazepam and 12 placebo) were selected. Further analysis excluded 36 ambivertics. Results did not suggest substantial dependence between introversion and extraversion, and effect of diazepam on psychomotor functions. Only the negative effect of certain diazepam doses on visualmotor coordination in introvertic patients, as well as such influence on time of reaction with choice was found. It regards to diazepam doses of 10 mg t.i.d. after 7-10 days of treatment, and also the influence of single dose of 10 mg diazepam after 3-4 hours on visual-motor coordination as well.
