Abstract:
BACKGROUND:The relationship between depression and heart disease is very complex. In the group of patients with depression the coronary artery disease risk factors related to lifestyle (lack of physical activity, smoking, hypertension, and diabetes) are frequently observed. For many years, researchers have been interested in the relationship between personality and the tendency to collapse on somatic disorders. The result of this research was to create the concept of type D personality, which is formed by two dimensions: negative emotionality and social inhibition. These features have their reflection in many aspects of life, including in stressful situations. AIM:The prime goal of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of type D personality and dominant styles of coping with stress for patients with coronary artery disease. The study also tried to determine the correlation between the presence of type D personality and style of coping with stress in the examined group. METHODS:The studied group consistent of 100 patients (70 men and 30 women) with coronary heart disease. Patients were examined with the Type D Scale (DS14) and the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations Questionnaire (CISS). RESULTS:Type D personality was found in 54% of cases for men and 47% for women. Distribution of type D personality did not differ for women and men. Analysis of the correlation between coping style in difficult situations and type D personality did not show that people with type D personality significantly more often chose a specific style of coping. CONCLUSIONS:Type D personality was found in 52% patients with stable coronary artery disease. Similar scores were observed for men and women. There was no evidence that patients with type D personality prefer a specific style of coping with stress.
