“…Those high in agreeableness were found to be more willing to cooperate with a larger number of orthodontic procedures presented in the survey. These results support the findings of Allan and Hodgson,14 who determined the best cooperators during orthodontic treatment were trustworthy. These results also coincide with the findings of Cohen et al, 9 who noted that patients high in modesty, another trait found within the agreeableness dimension of the modified BFI-10, displayed a positive correlation with patient adherence.…”

Objective: To establish an association between patient personality traits and potential willingness to undergo various orthodontic treatments. Materials and Methods: One hundred adolescent individuals aged 12-16 years completed an anonymous electronic questionnaire via Survey Monkey. The 24-item questionnaire contained three major sections: patient demographics, a modified Big Five Inventory (BFI)-10 personality index, and a willingness to undergo treatment assessment. Multiple-variable linear regression analyses were used to determine the associations among age, gender, ethnicity, and the five personality traits simultaneously with willingness to undergo treatment. Statistical significance was set at P # .05. Results: Ninety-six of the 100 individuals were included in the statistical analysis. Age, ethnicity, and gender failed to correlate with potential willingness to undergo orthodontic treatment. Several personality dimensions within the modified BFI-10 (agreeableness, conscientiousness, and neuroticism) were significantly associated with willingness to undergo various orthodontic treatments (P # .05). Agreeableness demonstrated positive correlations with five treatment modalities, while both conscientiousness and neuroticism exhibited negative associations with a single treatment modality. Openness and extraversion were the only personality dimensions that failed to associate with any of the treatment modalities. Four of the nine treatment modalities had no association with patient demographics or a patient's personality dimensions. Conclusions: Personality traits are useful in predicting a patient's potential willingness to participate in various orthodontic treatments. The agreeableness dimension provided the most utility in predicting patient willingness. Age, ethnicity, and gender were not significant in predicting patient willingness.

“…Since the sex of the patient is one of the easiest attribute variables to assess, it is frequently reported, although it may not be the central question of the study. Of eight studies relating gender to various aspects of orthodontic cooperation, three [19][20][21] reported girls to be more cooperative than boys, and five [22][23][24][25][26] found no difference between the sexes. Adding an active reminder system of the importance of intra-oral elastics should be strongly considered when implementing a protocol to improve the final treatment outcome.…”

ÖZETBu çal›flman›n amac› tedaviye bafllan›p ve daha sonra b›rakan hastalar›n genel bir profilini ortaya koymak ve sonuçlara göre önlemlerin al›nmas›na yönelik ad›m at›l-mas›n› sa¤lamakt›r. Çal›flmay› gerçeklefl-tirmek için 2001-2003 y›llar› aras›nda tedaviyi yar›da b›rakan 42 hastan›n tan›t›m kartlar› kullan›lm›flt›r. Hastalar›n yafl ortalamalar› ise, k›zlar›n 14,5 sene, erkeklerin ise 12,4 sene olarak hesaplanm›flt›r. Te d aviyi yar›da b›rakan hastalar›n yafl ve cinsiyet yönünde istatistiksel fark olmad›¤› gö-rülmüfltür (p>0.05). Tedaviyi yar›da b›ra-kan hastalar›n tedaviye bafllayabilmek için bekledikleri süreler incelendi¤inde, tedavi için bekleyen hastalar›n ortalama bekleme süreleri 9.28 ay olarak bulunm u fl t u r. Hastalar›n %81'i bir seneden az beklerken, %19'u bir seneden fazla bekl e m i fl l e r d i r. Tedaviyi yar›m b›rakan hastalar›n büyük ço¤unlu¤unun k›sa süre bekleyen hastalardan oluflmas› taraf›m›zca ilginç bulunmufltur. Tedaviye al›nmak için geçen bekleme süresinin uzamas›, beklenenin aksine hasta kooperasyonuna, olumsuz de¤il, olumlu bir katk› sa¤lam›fl-t › r.
