Social indicators as indexes of neuroticism and extraversion
Lajunen, T (Elsevier BV, 2004-12-01)
Lynn and Hampson (1975) and recently Lester (2000) suggested that national level of extraversion (E) and neuroticism (N) could be assessed by using certain national indicators like suicide and divorce rates. In this study, Lynn and Hampson's (1975) and Lester's (2000) models were assessed by using 1990s data. Although Lynn and Hampson's original N and E factors correlated with EPQ N (r = 0.48) and E (r = 0.60) scores as hypothesised, the factor structure did not recur in the 1990s data. Factor analysis supp...

Social construction of "pseudo disease" in Turkey: Clinicians' practice of "giving diagnosis", patiens' voices from "subject positions"
Usubütün, Seda; Aksu, Meral; Department of Psychology (2003)
Pseudo diseases" that will be explored in that study are Undifferentiated Somatoform Disorder (USD), Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). CFS is a diagnostic label that is not currently used in Turkish medical practice. In order to document the latency or absence of CFS diagnosis in our context, 108 medical specialists from Neurology, Infectious Diseases, Physical Treatment and Rehabilitation, and Psychiatry were asked to read a case scenario of a possible CFS patient and to give ...
