“…Most cross-sectional studies report no association between seeking social support and physical or psychological outcome measures (Penley et al, 2002;Schreurs & de Ridder, 1997). However, greater social support seeking has been associated with better functioning among patients with rheumatoid arthritis, chronic obstructive lung disease and psoriasis (Scharloo et al, 1998) and higher quality of life among elderly individuals with hip and knee pain (Hopman-Rock, Kraaimaat, & Bijlsma, 1997). Emotion-oriented and avoidant strategies may in the long run be less adaptive than problem-oriented and approach strategies (Lazarus & Folkman, 1984).…”

This study examines the contribution of demographic/amputation-related variables and coping strategies to the prediction of psychosocial adaptation in veterans with acquired lower limb amputations. Multiple indicators of the psychosocial adjustment of 796 individuals in the UK aged between 26-92 years with lower limb amputations were assessed. Hierarchical linear regressions were performed to investigate relationships between demographic/amputationrelated variables (i.e. age, time since amputation, amputation level and amputation aetiology), the dimensions of coping (namely problem solving, seeking social support and avoidance) and self-reported adaptation to amputation, as well as symptoms of intrusion, anxiety and depression. Results indicated that coping styles were important predictors of psychosocial adaptation. Avoidance was strongly associated with psychological distress and poor adjustment. In contrast, problem solving was negatively associated with depressive and anxious symptomatology whereas seeking social support was negatively associated with symptoms of depression and positively associated with social adaptation. These findings suggest the potential for interventions designed to promote particular coping strategies to improve psychosocial outcomes. r

“…Expectations, which are the anticipated outcome to an event, are informed by multiple cognitive and emotional factors, which contribute to patients' perceptions of a complex intervention such as TKA [30]. Indeed, most OA patients expect significant improvement in pain and function after TKA [15].…”

“…[25][26][27][28][29][30][31] Hastalık algısı ve hastalığın sonucu arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek için migren dı-şında kronik hastalığı olan hastalarda yapılan çalış-malar, içsel kontrol algısı yüksek bireylerde hastalığın seyrinin daha iyi olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. [32,33] Bizim çalışmamızda IPQ'nin alt ölçekleri arasında ilişki incelendiğinde hastalığını anlayabilen, hastalık sonuçlarına ait olumlu düşünceler geliştirmiş bireylerde hastalık süresine ait olumsuz inançların azaldığı, süreye ait olumlu algı arttıkça hastalığı anlayabilme ve tedavi kontrolüne ait olumlu düşünceler geliştir-diği görüldü (Tablo 5). Elde edilen bu sonuç MossMorris ve arkadaşlarının 2002 yılında yaptığı orijinal çalışmanın sonuçları ile korelasyon göstermektedir.…”

Anahtar sözcükler: Deprem; migren, revize hastalık algısı ölçeği. SummaryObjectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the reliability of the Revised Illness Perception Questionnaire (IPQ) and to determine the effects of earthquake experience on the perception in migraine patients. Methods:The sample was composed of 62 outpatients, consisting of with migraine diagnosis who were in Erciş during earthquake (n=33) and who had never had any earthquake experience (n=29).The interview form, IPQ-R and Beck Depression Scale (BDS) were applied. The study was carried out on migraine patients whose mean age was 31 and who had been diagnosed since 7.8 years. Comparison of groups with earthquake experience (group1) and without experience (group 2) there were no difference in point of demographic findings and disease severity (p>0.05).Results: In the part concerning the manifestations of the disease, the most frequently manifestations were found pain, headache and fatige. The test was determined to be reliable. Illness coherence and timeline (cyclic) subscale scores (p<0.05) and BDS score (z: -2.006, p<0.05)were significantly higher in group 1. Although an earthquake caused an increase in depression scores did not cause much change in the IPQ-R scores. Group1 understand disease better and realize of the cyclical nature of the disease. Other perception parameters of the disease were same in both groups. Conclusion: A severe life event such as an earthquake did not much change IPQ-R scores in migraine patients. The results of this study demonstrated that IPQ could be used reliably in the Turkish migraine patients.
