    Area of Science:

    • Psychology
    • Behavioral Medicine
    • Cardiology

    Background:

    • Type A behavior (TAB) is linked to coronary heart disease (CHD) risk.
    • Existing measures of TAB have limitations in capturing underlying psychological dimensions.
    • The association between TAB measures and psychopathology requires further investigation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review difficulties in describing and assessing TAB.
    • To examine the relationship between TAB measures and psychopathology.
    • To introduce new measurement approaches for TAB and review modification strategies.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of existing literature on TAB assessment and its link to psychopathology.
    • Description of a new conceptual model for TAB derived from cognitive social learning theory.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Review of studies attempting to modify TAB using psychological, exercise, and drug treatments.

    • Main Results:

    • Measures like the Framingham and Bortner scales correlate highly with neuroticism.
    • Cognitive social learning theory provides a framework for understanding TAB through personal beliefs and fears.
    • Cognitive behavior therapy techniques have shown encouraging results in modifying TAB.

    Conclusions:

    • New conceptualizations of TAB are needed, focusing on cognitive and social learning aspects.
    • Modifying TAB through cognitive behavior therapy may aid in CHD prevention.
    • Future CHD prevention studies should integrate psychosocial and personality variables with traditional risk factors.
