l) We selected 53 asthmatics who had evidently allergic factors from those who had recently visited the Department of Psychosomatic Medicine, Kyushu University, and performed psychosomatic studies on them. As the result, psychological factors were found in 45 patients (89. 7%) ; 23 Patients at the onset and 22 patients in the course of the disease. We attempted to provoke or suppress the asthmatic attack under suggestions. For this, 18 subjects were selected who had a positive reaction to the provocative test of house dust. At first, the subjects were made to inhale distilled water with the suggestion that it was house dust extract, and then house dust extract suggesting that it was bronchodilators. The result shows that the suggestion was effective in 13 (72. 2%) 3) We performed various types of psychotherapy (hypnotherapy, autogenic training, psychoanalytical psychotherapy etc.) to 28 asthmatics with allergic factors and 28. 6% of the subjects showed marked improved and 39. 3% moderately improvement. It is assumed by these results that psychological factors also play an important role in the asthmatics with allergic factors in the precipitation and perpetuation of this disease. We are of the opinion that when psychological factors are present, psychotherapy should be applied to allergic asthmatics.
