  • Title: [Aggressive behavior of patients with psychosomatic disorders. A comparative study of patients with ulcerative colitis and diabetes mellitus with the Rosenzweig-P-F Test].
    Author: Liedtke R, Jäger B.
    Journal: Psychother Psychosom Med Psychol; 1993 May; 43(5):178-82. PubMed ID: 8327631.
    Abstract:
    In previous investigations with the Rosenzweig Picture-Frustration Study (PFS) the patients of the psychosomatic sample distinguished themselves by a decreased extrapunitivity and increased intropunitivity in comparison with the "healthy" control persons and by a more distinct intropunitivity compared with neurotic control persons. In this investigation two groups with patients with somatic diseases are compared with the PFS-32 patients with ulcerative colitis (psychosomatic group) and 30 patients with diabetes mellitus (somatic control group). The patients with colitis attain significantly higher scores on the dimension intropunitivity, i.e. they turn aggressive impulses against self to a greater extent. The result is in accordance with the assumption of an aggressive inhibition of patients with ulcerative colitis often described in the literature.
