Abstract
The association of psychiatric symptoms and especially neurotic disorders, with episodes of physical illness, has been repeatedly studied and verified in different ways. These studies have ranged from investigations on general population (Hinkle and Wolff, 1958; Hinkle et al., 1958; Rawnsley and Loudon, 1964; Hagnell, 1966; Gillis et al., 1968; Vázquez et al., 1981) and samples of general practice (Sheperd et al., 1966; Kreitman et al., 1966; Goldberg and Blackwell, 1970; Eastwood and Trevelyan, 1972) to studies of psychiatric inpatients and outpatients (Davies, 1965; Maguire and Granville-Grossman, 1968).
