Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate how the psychological and mental tendencies manifested in the Sasang Constitution are reflected in an objective personality test, MMPI-2.
Methods: The survey was conducted on 101 Korean medical students to investigate the relationship between the Sasang Constitution and MMPI-2.
Results: Soeumin showed higher scores in the Hs, Pt, RC1 and RC3 than Taeumin and showed higher scores in the D, Si, RC2, R, MAC-R and INTR than Soyangin. Soeumin showed higher scores in the ANX, OBS, and HEA and showed lower scores in the Es and GM than other Constitutions. Soyangin showed the higher scores in the AGGR than Soeumin and showed the higher scores in the RC9 than other Constitutions. Soyangin showed the lower scores in the SOD and Taeumin showed the lower scores in the ASP than other Constitution (p<.05).
Conclusions: MMPI-2 contains items that distinguish the characteristics of Soeumin, Soyangin, and Taeumin and it is therefore useful to employ it to obtain basic data for analyzing oriental psychopathology.
