In this study psychological profiles of patients with PU (n=160) were analysed, and compared to those with asthma (n=32) and healthy subjests (n=120). The method of study involved the use six questionnaires test of SRQ-D, Y-G, MMPI-AS, MAS, TMI and CLS.The results were as follow: (1) The patients with PU showed higher scores in SRQ-D, TMI, MMPI-AS and CLS than that of control group with statistical significance. (2)More patients with PU and control subjects showed a normal type D personality than patients with asthma; whereas asthma patients showed a type E more often than the control group and PU patients.Our study indicated that PU patients had more or less charactristic traints of anxiety, depression, introversion, alexithymia and type A behavior. These findings suggest that the characteristic personality patterns in patients with PU in Shanghai is more or less the same as that seen in the Western society and Japan. This is the first study for PU from the stand-poind of psychosomatic medicine in Shanghai.展开更多
