“…In the literature, studies investigating mental disorders and coping skills had different results. While some studies found that individuals with mental disorders use effective coping skills (Cohen, Hassamal, & Begum, ; Gloria & Steinhardt, ), the others found the use of ineffective coping skills (Adan, Antúnez, & Navarro, ; Aksoy & Kelleci, ; Mingrone et al., ; Moret‐Tatay, Beneyto‐Arrojo, Laborde‐Bois, Martínez‐Rubio, & Senent‐Capuz, ). In another study, it was determined that both methods were used together (Shrestha, ).…”

Introduction Although it is recognized that suffering a mental illness is a traumatic experience, the fact that this can lead to posttraumatic growth and the variables that may affect the situation are rarely discussed in the literature. Aim This study was conducted to determine the effects of coping styles and nursing care perceptions on posttraumatic growth in mental disorders. Method The descriptive study was conducted at a psychiatric clinic with a personal information form and three-scale test. Results In the study, completed with 122 psychiatric inpatients, it was found that patients were using effective methods to cope with stress, were satisfied with nursing care and had high posttraumatic growth. Moreover, it was found that effective coping styles and satisfaction with nursing care positively affected the posttraumatic growth level of patients. Discussion The results support the proposition that using effective coping styles and seeking professional support after traumatic life events influence posttraumatic growth levels. Implications for practice Psychiatric nurses should be aware of the fact that developing a mental disorder is a traumatic life event after which posttraumatic growth can occur. They should encourage posttraumatic growth by teaching effective coping methods, providing psychiatric care and using psychosocial interventions such as trauma-focused cognitive behavioural therapy and eye movement desensitization.

“…Furthermore, some studies have reported that social support and interaction between the patients and their families increase adherence to treatment [11,12]. Adequate and improved social support positively affects the patients’ medication adherence and treatment, accelerates the treatment process, and improves the patients’ quality of life [13]. In the treatment of high blood pressure, it is necessary to understand the patients’ perspectives on medication adherence because high blood pressure has a silent and asymptomatic nature.…”

Objectives This study aimed to review the available studies of the factors in Iranian hypertensive patients’ adherence to drug treatment. Methods Four Persian databases and seven English databases were searched. The articles, which were published from 2000 to 2022 in Persian and English and examined the adherence to drug treatment in the Iranian population of adults with high blood pressure, were reviewed. Based on the primary examination, 31 of the initial 1062 articles met the inclusion criteria and were included in the analysis. The evidence, which was provided by the examined articles, was summarized and discussed using the 5-dimensional framework of adherence to long-term treatments, which was developed by WHO. Results The factors that significantly correlated with adherence to drug treatment in the examined studies were: (1) factors that were related to the health team or the health system: patients’ satisfaction with their doctor-patient relationship; (2) factors that were related to the conditions: the number of concomitant diseases, high quality of life and the implementation of effective interventions; (3) factors which were related to the treatment: long duration of illness, short intervals between the visits, duration of treatment, lower numbers of drugs, and the patient’s blood pressure control; and (4) factors that were related to the patient: self-efficacy, health literacy, social support, locus of control, illness perception, beliefs, attitude, knowledge, and cues to action. Conclusion: It is possible to draw definite conclusions about the factors which affect adherence to drug treatment in patients with high blood pressure because most of the relevant studies have been cross-sectional. Therefore, in the future, valuable results can be obtained by conducting more studies that preferably use objective instruments for assessing adherence to drug treatment

“…Aldebot et al [33] reported that that a greater denial in coping is associated with a poorer medication adherence in schizophrenia. A study by Aksoy et al [34] revealed that patients with bipolar disorders preferring passive coping ways have smaller drug compliance rates. Also, de Brito et al [35], who thoroughly studied patients with renal grafts taking immunosuppressants, proved that the use of palliative coping pattern (religion/fantasy thoughts and emotion -focused coping) was associated with a non-adherence in those patients.…”

Introduction. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, autoimmune disease of the central nervous system, which affects young adults between 20–40 years old. The incidence of MS is increasing worldwide. The symptoms vary and depend on which part of the nervous system is affected. Stress is very common in patients with MS. It can be a risk factor related with relapses of the disease. Coping is defined as the behavioural and cognitive efforts used in an attempt to deal with stressful events. In a long-term treatment, disease modifying therapies are used to reduce the risk of the progression and severity of MS, and reduce the risk of disability. The adherence to therapy has a crucial role in the effectiveness of drugs.Aim. The aim of the study was to assess the correlation between coping strategies and quality of life in multiple sclerosis patients depending on the degree of adherence.Material and Methods. The study was conducted in 226 patients suffering from MS.Results. It was demonstrated that 23.5% of respondents do not follow recommended treatments. Both adherent and non-adherent patients gave the highest grade to their quality of life in its social and psychological aspects. The most often used strategies of coping with stress both in adherent and non-adherent patients were as follows: active coping, planning, positive reframing, acceptance, seeking emotional support and seeking instrumental support. On the other hand, substance use was the least frequently used strategy, irrespective of the adherence level.Conclusions. The use of the coping-with-stress strategy, associated with an active problem solving and seeking support, plays a positive role in the quality of life of MS patients adhering to therapeutic recommendations. The use of avoidance strategies, i.e. the not taking of actions as well as self-blaming, reduces the quality of life in MS patients, both adherers and non-adherers to recommendations.
