Of the 16 Personnel with this disorder, 14 Personnel had mild hypocondria and 2 Personnel had moderate hypocondria. There was no significant relationship between hypocondria with gender, educational status and marital status. While, the relationship between age and self-confidence was significant (P = 0. 013).
