研究背景A型行为模式（TABP）被认为是冠心病的一个假定危险因素，本研究组最近的研究表明，通过Bortner量表（其有效性已被结构化访谈证实）确定的TABP个体可能更倾向于情绪激动型气质，睡眠时间更短，打盹时间更短。由于Bortner量表是在美国开发的，可能反映了西方文化，因此有必要使用日本问卷，如日本人冠状动脉倾向类型量表（CTS）和关西学院的日常生活问卷（KG问卷）来重新确认我们的研究结果。通过日本标准版的孟菲斯、比萨、巴黎和圣地亚哥自动问卷（TEMPS-A）评估情绪亢进型气质，同时通过腕动计测量睡眠时间和打盹时间。虽然CTS和KG分数显着和积极的情绪激动的气质分数，没有相关的睡眠时间或snooze time.LIMITATIONSThe人数相对较小。CONCLUSIONSThe研究结果表明，日本的问卷调查，如CTS和KG问卷是有效的TABP措施。此外，CTS和KG问卷都再次证实了TABP和高情感气质之间的关联，而TABP和睡眠模式之间的关联则没有。因此，目前的研究结果提供了支持性证据CTS和KG问卷的有用性。
BACKGROUNDType A behavior pattern (TABP) has been regarded as a putative risk factor for coronary heart disease and recent studies from our group suggest that TABP individuals, identified via the Bortner scale whose validity had been confirmed by structured interviews, may have a greater tendency towards hyperthymic temperament, shorter sleep time and shorter snooze time. Since the Bortner scale was developed in USA and may reflect western culture, it is necessary to reconfirm our findings using a Japanese questionnaire such as Coronary-prone Type Scale for Japanese (CTS) and Kwansei Gakuin's daily life questionnaire (KG questionnaire).METHODSFifty healthy subjects were assessed for TABP using the Bortner scale, as well as the CTS and KG questionnaires. Hyperthymic temperament was assessed via the Japanese standardized version of the Temperament Evaluation of Memphis, Pisa, Paris and San Diego-auto questionnaire (TEMPS-A), while sleep time and snooze time were measured by actigraphy.RESULTSBoth CTS and KG questionnaire scores were significantly and positively associated with the Bortner scale scores. Although CTS and KG scores were significantly and positively associated with hyperthymic temperament scores, none were associated with sleep time or snooze time.LIMITATIONSThe number of subjects was relatively small.CONCLUSIONSThe findings suggest that Japanese questionnaires such as CTS and KG questionnaires are valid as measures of TABP. Moreover, the association between TABP and hyperthymic temperament was reconfirmed by both CTS and KG questionnaires, whereas the association between TABP and sleep pattern was not. As such, the present findings provide supportive evidence about the usefulness of CTS and KG questionnaires.
