This paper reports on the relationship between questions on mental (sections M-R) and physical (sections A-L) states in a CMI health questionnaire, in order to investigate psychosomatic aspects of outpatients. The subjects were 30 female patients with oral psychosomatic halitosis.
The following results were obtained:
1) Mental section M (inadequacy) and physical sections D (questions referring to the digestive tract) and I (weariness) were found to have a high correlation (p<0.05).
2) N (depression) and J (frequency of illness) were positively correlated (p<0.05).
3) O (anxiety), B (respiratory system), C (cardiovascular system), and I and L (habits) had a high correlation (p<0.05).
4) P (sensitivity), B and D were positively correlated (p<0.05).
5) Q (anger) and I were strongly correlated (p<0.025). B, C, D and L were shown to have a significant correlation (p<0.05).
6) R (tension), C, D, E (musculoskeletal system), G (nervous system), J and L had a high correlation (p<0.05).
