Abstract
Traditionally, the nervous, endocrine, and immune systeme have been regarded as separate systems both in clinical circumstances as well as in research. A concept of an interrelationship between the immune system and the nervous system, i.e. the psychological state, has been suggested before the first studies in psychoneuroimmunology have been conducted. Several authors implicated that mood disturbances may result in an increased susceptibility to infectious or neoplastic diseases (Ader, Feiten, & Cohen, 1991; Crow 1978; King, Cooper, Earle, Martin, McFerran, Rima, & Wisdom, 1985).
