  • Title: Personality pattern of patients with chronic gastric ulcer. Study of neuroticism and extroversion in a gastric ulcer and a control population.
    Author: Piper DW, Greig M, Thomas J, Shinners J.
    Journal: Gastroenterology; 1977 Sep; 73(3):444-6. PubMed ID: 892339.
    Abstract:
    Forty-four patients with chronic gastric ulcer were compared with a control group matched for age, sex, and place of residence. The personality pattern was studied by the Eysenck Personality Inventory and personality assessed in terms of neuroticism and extroversion. The relevance of social class was also studied. The gastric ulcer population did not differ from the control group except among the male population, in which the gastric ulcer population was significantly more neurotic and less extroverted than their controls.
