Type C: A Proposed Psychosocial Risk Factor for Cancer  

Définition

  • Introduction The Type C behaviour pattern, hypothesized to be related to the progression of cancer, was first elaborated and operationally defined in a study of psychosocial and epidemiological factors associated with malignant melanoma (Temoshok & Heller, 1981). Independently, British researchers had posed the question of whether there might be ‘a Type C for cancer?’ in an abstract published the previous year (Morris & Greer, 1980).
