[Type A behavior--a uniform construct?].

Single dimensions of the Type-A-behaviour pattern and their contributions to the etiology and pathogenesis of cardiovascular and psychosomatic diseases are very often discussed. Our studies are concerned with the analysis of 40 blue collar workers and patients (40 patients with hyperuricemia, 36 psychotherapy patients) in definite groups of age. By item analysis and multivariate statistical procedures (variance, factor and discriminant analysis) we found an overlapping effect of psychosocial factors of work and on the other hand the influence of neurotic symptoms and behaviour patterns.
