Also, a healthy control group (<jats:italic>n\u00a0<\/jats:italic>=<jats:italic>\u00a0<\/jats:italic>53; mean age 39.34\u00a0\u00b1\u00a05.26\u00a0years; range 23\u201355\u00a0years) was included. The groups were evaluated by the Temperament and Character Inventory. Accordingly, temperament includes four dimensions: harm avoidance, novelty seeking, persistence, reward dependence; and character consists of three dimensions: cooperativeness, self\u2010transcendence, self\u2010directedness.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>There were no significant differences among the three groups in the scores of novelty seeking, persistence, reward dependence and cooperativeness (for all <jats:italic>P\u00a0<\/jats:italic>&gt;<jats:italic>\u00a0<\/jats:italic>0.05).
