The present study presents the first known use of the A-B Rating Scale, a measure of Type A behavior, with 276 female college students. The purpose of this research was to explore the factor structure of the A-B scale and especially to attempt a replication of the factor structure across samples. Analysis gave a three-factor solution (Drivenness, Hypomania, and Leadership). Congruence coefficients indicated that the scale possesses significant factor matching across some of the factors. Research aimed at assessing the criterion validity of the three factors is called for.

Coronary Prone Behavior

It has recently been suggested that individuals showing the Type A behavior pattern may be less impulsive than those not showing the pattern. In this way the failure of the Type A individual to make many errors in reaction time tasks may be accounted for. A correlational study with 56 male and female college undergraduates does show a trend towards a negative relationship between Type A and impulsivity, but within the construct of impulsivity two components, risk-taking and non-planning, show relationships with Type A in opposing directions.

The relations of self-report scores for optimism, Type A behavior, and stress with those for depression and anxiety were examined in 144 Japanese female college students. A significant interaction of scores on optimism and Type A behavior indicated that subjects who reported higher optimism and higher Type A behavior had a lower mean for anxiety than those who reported lower optimism and higher Type A behavior.

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.
