Life Events
Life changes have been associated with illness onset. The Social Readjustment Rating Scale (SRRS) records numerical perceptions of the meaning of life events while the Schedule of Recent Experience (SRE) records the frequency of occurrence of life events. Data on these two instruments from 19 studies done in this laboratory have been surveyed and analyzed. They reveal significant variability among groups in their perceptions of life events as wel…
Magnitude of Life Events and Seriousness of Illness
A study investigating the relationship between the quantity of life change that patients have undergone during the 2 years before the onset of their illness, and the seriousness of that illness, is described in this report. The sample represented 42 disease items and 232 patients. Thirty-six percent of the life change for the 2-year period was found during the 6-month period prior to onset of the illness. A significant positive relationship of li…
The Social Readjustment Rating Scale
Two hundred sixty-six Malaysian medical students were compared with 195 selectively matched Americans on the Social Readjustment Rating Questionnaire. There was a remarkable concordance (Spearman's rho ranged from. 97 to. 91) between the Malaysian and American samples as well as between discrete subgroups in the Malaysian sample in the manner in which they established a relative order of magnitude to changes in life events. Some interesting and p…
Long-Term Adjustment, Prognosis, and Death in Irreversible Diffuse Obstructive Pulmonary Syndromes
Forty subjects with severe debilitating irreversible diffuse obstructive pulmonary syndrome were studied over a 4-year period. They were found to utilize denial, repression, and isolation to protect their failing respiratory systems from environmental inputs. Failure of these defenses led to physiologic and psychologic deterioration. Psychosocial assets were found to be as important as the physiologic assets in the treatment of these patients. Pa…

The social readjustment rating scale
Correlation of Behavior and Catecholamine Metabolite Excretion
In a study of the relationship of sympathetic nervous system activity to behavioral patterns in patients with psychiatric illness, catecholamine metabolite excretion was used as an index of sympathetic nervous system activity. Urine samples corresponding to the periods of the behavioral data were analyzed for metadrenaline (MA) and normetadrenaline (NMA). Lower levels of MA and NMA were seen during periods of calm, controlled behavior, whereas el…
Semantic Problems in Evaluating a Specificity Hypothesis in Psychophysiologic Relations
Grace and Graham's formulation of the correlation of “attitude” and “symptom” is briefly stated. Reference is made to the methodologic weakness in objectification and quantification on the psychologic side of the formulation. In a study of the discreteness of the attitudes, naïve judges behaved in such a way as to suggest that the attitudes are not discrete--rather, they fall into families or clusters. The relation between the clusters or familie…
Changes in Respiration Associated with Hypnotically Induced Emotion, Pain, and Exercise
The effect of hypnotic suggestion of naturally occurring and experimentally induced psychologic stress on the respiratory system was studied in 11 young male subjects. It was found that hypnotic suggestion of deep relaxation and depression formed one end of the spectrum, while suggestion of exercise, anger, and anxiety formed the other end. Patterns of response in the first group were called non-action oriented, and those in the second group were…
Psychophysiologic Studies of Pulmonary Ventilation
In a group of 22 subjects, action-oriented behavior has been correlated with hyperventilation in 20 subjects in response to short-term adverse life situations. Seven of the 22 subjects were found to hypoventilate in response to short-term adverse life situations to which they reacted with nonaction orientation. Seven of the 22 subjects were found to react to long-term adverse life stimuli with sustained changes in psychologic orientation and incr…
Experimental Studies of Skin Inflammation
The influence of certain naturally occurring and experimentally induced stresses on experimental skin inflammation was studied daily in both hospitalized and nonhospitalized human subjects. The experimental inflammation was induced by standardized intradermal injections of 0.05 cc. of a dilute trypsin solution into the forearm, and measurements of the whealing response were taken to determine the magnitude of the inflammation. Mood and attitude, …
Psychosocial and Psychophysiologic Studies of Tuberculosis
In keeping with other investigations of the relationship of the social process to disease,41-53 these psychosocial data indicate that cultural conflict contributes significantly to the natural history of tuberculosis. The consequences of ethnic, racial, and economic minority status, and the processes of urbanization and industrialism are clearly evident. In essence, these studies revealed the tuberculous subjects to be sensitive, anxious, rigid, …
Alcoholism and Tuberculosis
With the recent discovery of several new drugs, it has become possible to arrest tuberculosis more effectively and more rapidly than at any time in the past. The tuberculosis patient of ten years ago could expect to spend several years in the sanatorium. The tuberculosis patient of 1958 can look forward to returning home in well under a year
