Self-Reported Type A Behavior and Marital Status
The Jenkins Activity Survey Form C. was administered to a stratified sample of workers (1000 men and 465 women) to study the distribution of the Type A Behavior Pattern among Italians. General Type A scores were higher in married vs unmarried men and Job Involvement scores were higher for single persons than for married ones. Results suggest a stronger link between job involvement and marital status than between job involvement and Type A behavior.
