text: [Population models in the study of neurogenic domnants of arterial hypertension. Report 2. The peculiarities of arterial hypertension matched with personal motivational priorities].
  The peculiarities of primary arterial hypertension in persons with opposite types of motivational priorities were studied. The features and prevalence of the disease in two populations were analyzed. Group 1 consisted of 141 subjects whose profession and working conditions required maximum realization of the market-oriented motivational dominant ("socially active persons"); Group 2 consisted of 147 "altruistic" type subjects who lacked the first group's motivational dominant. The study found a higher prevalence of the disease and a lower level of psychological health as part of quality of life in Group 1 (p = 0.018); the disease in this group was more intensive and significant structural and functional left ventricular transformation was typical. The absence of pernicious habits and healthy life-style should not be considered primary factors of a more favorable clinical course of the disease in the "altruistic" group.
