The phenomenon of Type A and B personality prevalence and their correlation to the anti-health behavior of Polish physicians by Józefa Dąbek, Sławomir Wojczyk, Julia Bijoch, Oskar Sierka

“…Physicians with Type A personality achieved higher score values on all subscales of the My Eating Habits Questionnaire than physicians with intermediate and Type B personalities.ConclusionThe occurrence of Type A personality was associated with, among others, worse eating habits, more frequent sleep deprivation, and exposure to stress and low physical activity. There is a need to conduct educational activities at an early school stage regarding the benefits of following healthy lifestyle recommendations, and consequently limiting the development of diseases and their complications.…”
