Research Abstract |
This research investigates the personality of Graves' disease, Hasimoto disease and Adenomatous nodule in comparison with the neurosis using questionnaire, Baum-test and half structured interview. According to our results the personality of Graves' disease which has been regarded one of typical psychosomatic syndromes is rather close to the neurotics while Hashimoto disease and Adenomatous nodule show typically psychosomatic features such as lack of emotion and boundary. Those patients whose thyroid hormone has been normalized inidicate positive changes in psychological indexes.
