The student of medicine's primary interest in personality development may properly derive from the impact of personality functions on physiological functioning, and on the etiology and treatment of disease. Good physicians have always been aware that the majority of patients come to them because of emotional disturbances. It has become increasingly apparent that personality and emotional disorders not only are a major factor in the etiology of the so-called diseases of stress-such as peptic ulcer, ulcerative colitis, asthma, essential hypertension, hyperthyroidism-but may also contribute to the causation or chronicity of almost any illness.1 Nonmedical persons who are involved in the care or treatment of personality disorders need to be constantly aware of the physiological concomitants and potential bodily repercussions of emotional disturbances. The topics of psychophysiological disturbances and psychosomatic medicine form disciplines in themselves.2 As the reader is not expected to be versed in physiology and neuroanatomy, we shall seek to present here merely a general orientation that will permit a grasp of the essentials of the topic and of its importance.
