有问题的健康问题的特点，脑下垂体可能会更好地理解与认知，信息处理理论的帮助。我们调查是否hypotherapacal个人表现出知觉和外显记忆偏见有利于健康相关的信息。临床样本的hypotheracs（n=18）和健康对照组（n=22），和样本hypotheracal（n=22）和nonhypotheracal（n=67）患者提到的霍尔特监测，完成了一个计算机化的测试，感知难以阅读的单词，然后编码任务，然后回忆这些单词。与我们的预测相反，临床样本中的低血糖个体并没有比与健康无关的词感知到更多与健康相关的词。动态心电图监测样本中的低血糖个体对报告与健康相关的词表现出意想不到的偏见。社会阶层可能解释了这个样本中的一些群体差异。在这两个样本中的hypotherapacal个人表现出更好的记忆健康相关的比非健康的话。
Problematic health concerns characteristic of hypochondriasis may be better understood with the aid of cognitive, information processing theories. We investigated whether hypochondriacal individuals show perceptual and explicit memory biases favoring health-related information. A clinical sample of hypochondriacs (n=18) and healthy controls (n=22), and a sample of hypochondriacal (n=22) and nonhypochondriacal (n=67) patients referred for Holter monitoring, completed a computerized test of perceiving difficult-to-read words and then an encoding task followed by recall of those words. Contrary to our prediction, hypochondriacal individuals in the clinical sample did not perceive more health- related words than words not related to health. Hypochondriacal individuals in the Holter-monitoring sample showed an unexpected bias against reporting health-related words. Social class may account for some of the group differences in this sample. Hypochondriacal individuals in both samples showed better memory for health-related than nonhealth words.
