A Psychosomatic study was performed on 78 cases of male workers with ischemic heart disease using the Japan Productivity Center Mental Health Inventory (JMI), and the results were compared with age-matched control. As to the subjective symptoms, high scores were found in ear, cardiovascular, respiratory, intestine and anus, skin, urogenital, frequency of disease, multicomplain and fatigue. On the mental scales, the score of explosive (anger and impatience), suggestable, hypochondriacal, anxiety, social irresponsible were higher, while hypomanic, paranoia, cohesive, inferiority feeling and addiction (to alcohol) were lower than control. On the personality scales they recorded high scores of spontaneity, extraversion. assertiveness, flexibility, immediate reactiveness and future oriented. The relationship with their colleagues was poor and their sense of belongingness was low as compared with control on the occupational adjustment scales. These results indicated that personality profiles in Japanese ischemic heart disease was similar to those of type A behavior pattern fundamentally, while flexibility and empathy were demonstrated as Japanese characteristic personality. Although, they showed a neurotic tendency on mental scale, it seems that this may be results of their serious disease.
