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:

Unique and common variance in Structured Interview and Jenkins Activity Survey measures of Type A behavior pattern.
TL;DR: Overall, the correlations between the SI and JAS assessment were low and suggested a considerable degree of independence between the two measures, which should not be used as interchangeable measures of Type A behavior.

A Biochemical Property Relating to Power Seeking in Humans
TL;DR: The first systematic evidence of any biochemical property in humans which differentiates power seekers from others was found in this paper, where the disposition to seek power in a social arena was tied to a biochemical marker, whole blood serotonin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Time Urgency and the Type A Coronary-Prone Behavior Pattern1
TL;DR: In this paper, two experiments were conducted to examine behavioral consequences of a sense of time urgency, which presumably characterizes individuals classified as manifesting a so-called "Type A" coronary-prone behavior pattern.

The Management of Hard Times: Budget Cutbacks in Public Sector Organizations
Todd D. Jick,Victor V. Murray +1 more
TL;DR: The most likely future for most organizations, especially those in the public sector, is one of cutback and decline as mentioned in this paper, and the major changes such organizations face are those related to how to survive on less money.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occupational careers and the prevention of coronary-prone behavior.
TL;DR: The type A pattern, as measured by the Jenkins Activity Scale, was correlated with 15 measures of social and social-psychological status and supports the contention that the Type A pattern is integral to the modern occupational career.

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.

A Predictive Study of Coronary Heart Disease: The Western Collaborative Group Study

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.
