Özet
Objective: There are a few studies on the relationship between personality and temperament types and functionality and pain felt in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). This study aimed to determine the relationship between personality and temperament characteristics and pain and function in patients with knee OA.Methods: The study included 126 patients diagnosed with knee OA who met the inclusion criteria. Eysenck Personality Questionnaire Revised-Short Form (EPQR-S) and Type D Personality Scale (DS-14) were used for personality assessment, Temperament Evaluation of Memphis, Pisa, and San Diego Auto-questionnaire (TEMPS-A) was employed for temperament assessment, and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) was used for OA pain and general function assessment.Results: Of the participants, 58 (46%) showed Type D personality traits, while depressive temperament was dominant in 18 (14.3%) participants, irritable temperament in 12 (9.5%), and anxious temperament in 16 (17.3%) participants. Those with Type D personality had worse functions, and Type D personality was positively associated with pain and total WOMAC score. Total WOMAC score showed a positive correlation with neuroticism and psychoticism personality traits and cyclothymic and nervous temperament traits.Conclusion: This study demonstrates that pain and total WOMAC score are associated with personality and temperament characteristics in patients with knee OA. In addition to pharmacological and physical therapy, interventions in these areas may be beneficial.
