Research Abstract

The purpose of this research was to study the personality structure of the patients with Graves' disease, from a clinical psychological viewpoint. We conducted a kind of questionnaire and two kinds of drawing-tests, to the 46 Grave's disease patients diagnosed at the Kuma-hospital in Kobe and to the 35 normal control group. ln addition, we had a chance of the psychological interview(psychotherapy).
The results were mainly as follows : 1)Mauldsley Personality Inventory(MPI) ; we did not find the tendency that the patinets group was neurotic. That is, the emotional unstability they show clinically is considered to be different from that of the neurotic patients. 2)Baum Test ; the patients' drawings tended to be less energetic and strange. More, they showed thee difficulty in imaging and drawing the end of the trunk. We supposed from these drawings that the patients' ego boundaries are more vulnerable. As the results of MPI and Baum Tess, we concluded that these patients' personality were more vulnerable than that of the neurotic patients. 3)Raum Test(Room-Drawing-Test) ; The patients group had the difficulty in space composition. We considered these difficulty as a result of lack of "Subjectivity(I-ness)". 4)Psychological interview(Psychotherapy) ; the way of talking of a patient tended to be lack of coherence. We supposed that this feature was also related to the lack of "Subjectivity"
