TLDR
Independent factor analyses were performed on JAS responses from four large samples of employed men and concurred that the coronary-prone behavior pattern is actually composed of at least three major, conceptually independent behavioral syndromes: I. Hard Driving, II.About:

Cultural context of type A behavior and risk for CHD: a study of Japanese American males.
TL;DR: Those men who were more Westernized had a higher prevalence of CHD, especially if they were also type A, in terms of both geographical mobility and intergenerational change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occupational well-being: sex differences at work
TL;DR: The possibility that sex differences exist in the experiences and reporting of symptoms of ill health in this working population is examined, and working women were shown to report poorer well-being than working men, controlling for the age of the workers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Type A Behavior: Epidemiologic Foundations and Public Health Implications
TL;DR: The purpose in this chapter is to review the evidence bearing upon an association between Type A behavior and heart disease, and the physiological mechanisms that could possibly account for a relationship.

Rapid communication whole blood serotonin and the type A behavior pattern.
TL;DR: In 72 young males, whole blood serotonin is shown to have a pronounced relationship with the Type A behavior pattern and the relationship is explored with multivariate statistical techniques.

Association of specific overt behavior pattern with blood and cardiovascular findings: blood cholesterol level, blood clotting time, incidence of arcus senilis, and clinical coronary artery disease

Coronary heart disease in the Western collaborative group study. A follow-up experience of two years.
TL;DR: For example, this article found that the type A behavior pattern was strongly associated with the CHD incidence, and this association could not be explained by association of behavior pattern with any single predictive risk factor or with any combination of them.

TL;DR: The profile of coronary-prone males through retrospective analysis of prospectively obtained data is defined and higher serum beta/alpha lipoprotein ratios and 80 of them had been adjudged in "blind" assessments to exhibit an overt behavior pattern previously found associated with occurrence of CHD in middle-aged men are defined.

Development of an objective psychological test for the determination of the coronary-prone behavior pattern in employed men☆
TL;DR: The development of a self-administered, machine-scored psychological test to measure the coronary-prone behavior pattern and the present form of the test questionnaire distinguishes at high levels of statistical significance between groups of men clinically judged to manifest the coronary to coronary heart disease pattern and those groups judged not to manifests the pattern.
