Could hypomanic traits explain selective migration? Verifying the hypothesis by the surveys on sardinian migrants.

Introduction: A recent survey put forward the hypothesis that the emigration that occurred from Sardinia from the 1960's to the 1980's, selected people with a hypomanic temperament. The paper aims to verify if the people who migrated from Sardinia in that period have shown a high risk of mood disorders in the surveys carried out in their host countries, and if the results are consistent with this hypothesis.

Methods: This is systematic review.
