A growing body of research suggests that your personality can influence your health. And some experts think personality testing might one day help treat diseases.

"If you're confronted with a chronic condition, like heart disease," Dr. Vedhara explained, "you might have an emotional response to that condition which might influence your underlying psychology and your ability to recover; you may well have an orientation which makes you more or less likely to exercise."

Therefore, she believes that in general, a treatment approach that considers the patient's psychological profile may be more effective than one that just looks at physical symptoms.

越來越多的研究表明，你的個性會影響你的健康。一些專家認爲，在未來的某一天，性格測試或許會有助於治療疾病。

韋德哈拉博士解釋說，“如果得了慢性病，比如心臟病，你可能因爲生病而產生情緒上的反應，這種反應或許會影響你的潛在心理以及康復能力;你很可能具有某種傾向性，這種傾向性會影響你鍛鍊身體的意願。”

因此，她認爲在通常情況下，把患者的心理狀況考慮在內的治療方案，可能會比只着眼於生理症狀的治療方案有效得多。

【講解】

文中的personality testing就是“性格測試”的意思，其中personality是名詞，多指日常表現出來的“性格，個性”，如：She has a powerful personality.(她有堅強的個性。);而character指一個人真正的根深蒂固的、永久具有的內在的本質，如：determined character(果斷的性格)

第二段中的be confronted with表示“面臨，面對”，體現一種“不可避免的”相遇狀態，如：The new system was confronted with great difficulties at the start.(這項新制度剛開始就遇到了很大的困難。)
