Type A coronary-prone behavior pattern, self-consciousness, and self-monitoring: a questionnaire study. 1982

R M Herbertt, and J M Innes

A correlational and factor analytic study of data from 233 undergraduate university students was designed to test the hypothesis that there are differences between Type A and Type B individuals in their predisposition to be self-aware. Both measures of Type A behavior did not correlate with measures of self-consciousness but did show small, statistically significant relationships with a measure of self-monitoring. This finding is discussed in the light of experimental data reported in the literature. A significant but small correlation found between the two measures of Type A behavior is discussed with reference to the use of short scales for Type A behavioral assessment.
