Objectives: This study analyzes the link between rheumatic diseases and distressed or Type D personality. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in the rheumatology polyclinics of two university hospitals located in two different cities between January 2016 and January 2017. The research sample included 336 patients. A personal information form and the Type D Personality Scale-DS14 were used to collect data. The data were analyzed using SPSS 20 software.Results: Of the patients, 62.8% were female, 85.12% were married, and 34.52% had completed primary school. Of them, 65.77% said that they had diffuse connective tissue diseases. It was determined that 27.08% used steroids, NSAIDs and paracetamol in combination, and a majority (69.64%) had not not hospitalized in the last year. The patients’ mean score for negative emotions was 9.14±5.6, and their mean score for social inhibition was 9.98±5.67. No significant difference was found between the Type D personality of the rheumatic disease groups [(negative emotions: p= 0.871).(social inhibition: p= 0.224)]. No statistical difference was found between the groups in terms of their scores for negative emotions and social inhibition (p> 0.05). Conclusion: Although psychological disorders that involve anxiety and depression affect the onset, progress and cure of rheumatic diseases, this study found no significant link between the Type D personality and rheumatic diseases. |
