(1)Spearman correlation coefficient. Symbols indicate level of significance: *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001.

(2)1 = when the cut-off point of the GHQ-12 was 3/4, those who scored 4 or more; 0 = those who scored 3 or less.

(3)1 = those who are scored in the upper 30th percentile; 0 = others.

(4)Affective temperaments assessed by the TEMPS-A.
