[Psychometric results in patients with Klinefelter syndrome].
In psychodiagnostic investigation 12 Klinefelter-patients and 12 psychosomatic patients matched for age and socioeconomic status were compared. Our results are generally in agreement with the observations in recent research concerning some personality traits. 1. The intelligence of Klinefelter-patients rather meets the mark of practical than educational standards. Therefore these patients quite often fail at school, which otherwise is adequate to the level of their general-IQ. 2. Klinefelter-patients generally score low in the masculinity-scale. Equally remarkable is the tendency towards introversion, shyness, inhibition and an unstable emotionality.
