Sumario:A group of 41 consecutive patients with proven diagnosis of Myocardial Infarction were studied. The severity of the Myocardial Infarction, the personality, social back ground, stressful life events preceding the onset of illness and the psychological reaction occuring in the hospital were correlated with the Psychological, Social and Physical recoveries 4 months after the onset of illness.
