Abstract:
:This literature review examines the association of social and psychologic characteristics among women with a) the risk of developing coronary heart disease and b) prognosis and recovery after disease has become manifest. Studies of psychosocial risk factors are often conflicting. These divergent findings can result from different study designs, the use of different measures and scales, or the study of different populations. This review attempts to draw conclusions from the existing literature and indicate where there are needs for additional research.
