In order to study the relationship between ego identity and neurotic disorder, Dignan’s modified ego identity scale was administered to 64 neurotic patients and 98 healthy controls. The scores were analyzed as to age group, diagnostic impression, SAS score, onset of illness, duration of illness and future prospect. The results were as follows; 1) The scores of ego identity in neurotic patients were lower than those of healthy controls. 2) The scores of ego identity in healthy controls increased relatively with age, but those of 21-30 years group in neurotics were lower than those of group aged below 20 years. 3) The scores of ego identity in neurotics of high anxiety group were lower than those of low anxiety group. 4) The scores of ego identity in neurotic patients of early onset group were lower than those of late onset group 5) The scores of ego identity in neurotic patients of long duration group were lower than those of short duration group. 6) The scores of ego identity in both of neurotics and healthy controls were higher in optimistic future prospect group than those of pessimistic group.
