In order to investigate the alexithymic personality disorder of psychosomatic patients, I conducted three studies on this subject using psychological tests. The first study was conducted to compare the personality of the subjects according to good and poor control of fasting blood level with YG-test analized by factor analysis. The results showed that alexithymic patients did poorly than well controlled diabetics. The second study was conducted to study the alexithymic aspects of severe diabetics comparing with mild subjects who were matched with age, duration of diabetes. The results suggested that the severity of diabetes was related to the patients' alexithymic characteristics measured by the state and trait anxiety inventory and YG-test. That is, there were less anxious and abnormal patients in the severe diabetics, which was discussed that the alexithymic personality contributed to the severity of diabetes. The third study was conducted with the subjects of "character psychosomatics" and neurotic patients using Egogram. The results supported the 1st and 2nd studies, in that character psychosomatics were factor-analytically shown as alexithymic than neurotics. These studies maintained that alexithymic characteristics neglect one's somatic sign so as to aggravate the disease as well as develop psychosomatic diseases.
