Abstract:
The area of psychosocial risk factors for heart disease has not been as thoroughly studied in women as it has been in men. Findings from various studies are often conflicting or nonconclusive. This article summarizes the salient findings from various studies of social, behavioral, and psychological risk factors in women and delineates potential avenues for future research.
