Aiexithymia in a personality structure of bronchial asthma patients

Full Text:

Abstract

One hundred and eighteen bronchial asthma (BA) patients were examined by means of the Toronto alexithymie scale (TAS), and a brief version of the personality multilateral investigation method (PMIM), and the Spilberg-Khanin’s anxiety scale. Among them 55.1% of the patients were recognized as alexithymie persons. Asthmatic patients with alexithymia were reliably more neurotized compared with non-alexithymic ones. The revealed peculiarities of an actual personal condition of the alexithymie bronchial asthma patients cause a necessity of including methods of psychotherapeutic correction of alexithymia to a prevention measures system.
