To examine emotional characteristics, especially personality profile, of patients with dystonia.
Three hundred patients with dystonia were enrolled in the study. Control groups consisted of 50 healthy individuals and 62 patients with hemifacial spasm (GFS). HADS, Beck depression inventory and Spielberger-Khanin anxiety scale were used. The 16 Personality Factors Questionnaire (16PF) was used to study personality profile.
Higher levels of anxiety and depression in patients with dystonia compared to the control groups were identified. The level of anxiety and depression was not correlated with disease severity. Personality profile study confirmed the high level of anxiety in patients with dystonia and additionally showed increased emotional instability and poor emotional control. Intellectual personality characteristics of patients with dystonia had no differences compared to the control groups. An analysis of socio-psychological characteristics of personality in patients with dystonia and GFS showed restricted interpersonal and social communications since the motor defect noticeable to others leads to severe social exclusion and the desire for self-isolation.
研究肌张力障碍患者的情绪特征，尤其是人格特征。
300例肌张力障碍患者纳入本研究。对照组由50名健康个体和62例半面痉挛患者（GFS）组成。使用医院焦虑抑郁量表（HADS）、贝克抑郁量表和斯皮尔伯格 - 卡宁焦虑量表。采用16种人格因素问卷（16PF）研究人格特征。
与对照组相比，肌张力障碍患者的焦虑和抑郁水平更高。焦虑和抑郁水平与疾病严重程度无关。人格特征研究证实肌张力障碍患者存在高度焦虑，此外还表现出情绪不稳定加剧和情绪控制能力差。肌张力障碍患者的智力人格特征与对照组相比无差异。对肌张力障碍患者和半面痉挛患者的人格社会心理特征分析表明，由于他人明显可见的运动缺陷导致严重的社会排斥和自我隔离的愿望，其人际和社会交往受到限制。
