通过明尼苏达州多相人格量表上的库克-梅德利敌意量表(HO)测量的敌意被认为是冠心病(CHD)和总死亡率的危险因素。这项研究以 1399 名 1953 年进入明尼苏达大学的男性为样本,测试了 HO-CHD 假设,并作为新生入学培训的一部分完成了 MMPI。 33年后,94%的样本通过电话采访确定了当前的健康状况。在基线危险因素调整之前或之后,较高的 HO 分数并不能预测 CHD 死亡率、CHD 发病率或总死亡率。对这些结果的合理解释包括:(1) 敌意并不是所有人群的危险因素,(2) 19 岁时的 HO 量表不能评估稳定的心理特征,或者 (3) HO 量表不能充分衡量敌意。
Hostility as measured by the Cook-Medley Hostility (HO) Scale on the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory has been suggested as a risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD) and total mortality. This study tested the HO-CHD hypothesis in a sample of 1399 men who entered the University of Minnesota in 1953 and, as part of freshman orientation, completed the MMPI. Current health status was ascertained for 94% of the sample through telephone interviews 33 years later. Higher HO scores did not predict CHD mortality, CHD morbidity, or total mortality either before or after adjustment for baseline risk factors. Among the plausible explanations for these results are that (1) hostility is not a risk factor in all populations, (2) the HO scale at age 19 does not assess a stable psychological characteristic, or (3) the HO scale is not an adequate measure of hostility.
