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:

Risk of new myocardial infarction in middle-aged men with manifest coronary heart disease.
TL;DR: Type A score appears relatively unaffected by whether the measure was made before or after the initial CHD event, and future field trials for the secondary prevention of myocardial infarction would be strengthened by consideration of the possible role of Type A behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dissociation between sympathetic-adrenal and pituitary-adrenal responses to an achievement situation characterized by high controllability: comparison between type A and type B males and females.
TL;DR: Comparison between sexes showed that males reported exerting significantly more effort than females and, accordingly, secreted significantly more adrenaline, and catecholamine output increasing and cortisol output decreasing in response to the achievement demands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Psychological correlates of the Type A behavior pattern
TL;DR: Correlations between the various Type A questionnaire scales and the structured interview were found to be notably low and the use of Type A questionnaires and implications for Type A interventions are discussed.

TL;DR: Perhaps the most substantial challenge facing employees as a result of this time orientation is trying to choose between alternative courses of action while under this time pressure.

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
Meyer Friedman,Ray H. Rosenman +1 more
TL;DR: Three groups of men, selected solely according to the behavior pattern which they habitually manifested in their work, were compared and found that this pattern per se was largely responsible for the striking differences found.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
