Abstract:
A study on perception of oneself (self acceptance, self review, self acceptance) was carried out in 30 male subjects with lung cancer and 30 male subjects with chronic bronchitis. A standardized review allowed to characterise each patient. A diagnostical questionnaire added information on each patient's characterological status. A decrease of self acceptance was found that was proportional to duration of disease. The results of this study demonstrated the variations in characterology of patients influenced by their disease process.
