Abstract

In order to investigate the possibility of a specific psychological profile associated with endometriosis, 81 women with pelvic pain were studied, of whom 40 were diagnosed as having endometriosis and 41 other gynaecological problems. Each patient completed six standardized psychometric tests to assess personality, psychopathology, marital state and pain. Endometriosis patients obtained higher psychoticism, introversion and anxiety scores in comparison to the other pain patients, although the two groups did not differ on pain ratings. Both groups obtained neuroticism, anxiety and psychiatric morbidity scores which were elevated relative to normative data. The possibility that there are certain psychological characteristics which make some women vulnerable to endometriosis is discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
