Type A Behavior and Allergies
Abstract. We report a correlation between Type A-B behavior (measured by the Jenkins Activity Survey) and self-reports of allergies. Subjects were 300 university students. There was a significant difference between groups, Chi-square = 8.46, p < .01, Phi = .23. The results suggest a positive correlation between hypertension and allergy, corroborating previous reports.
