| Abstract: | The presence of a diagnosable Axis I psychiatric disorder predicted significantly (P < 0.001) lower likelihood of significant improvement among 90 irritable bowel syndrome patients given cognitive and behavioral treatments to help the disorder. Other psychological tests, including the MMPI, BDI, STAI, as well as demographic variables, failed to yield significant prediction. |
