Cardiovascular disease is the most prevalent public health problem on a worldwide scale, and ischemic heart disease accounts for approximately one-half of these events in high-income countries. One of the most important risk factors for this disease is mental and psychological especially stressful experiences.
This research was established to compare emotional processing, as a key factor in stress appraisal, between IHD patients and people with no cardiovascular disease.
Using simple sampling, fifty patients were selected from people who diagnosed as IHD in the hospital and referred for treatment after discharging care and treatment. Control group participants were selected as control group peoples, using neighbourhood controls selection. The Emotional Processing Scale was filled by all members of the two groups.
There were significant differences between the two groups on the EPS-25 total scores, as well as on emotional processing dimensions of signs of unprocessed emotion, unregulated emotion; avoidance and impoverished. Also, there was no significant difference between the two groups in the dimension of Suppression. The final step of regression revealed a β of 10.15 and 1.05 for AVO and IEE subscales respectively.
The result showed that patients with IHD are using more negative emotional processing styles.
心血管疾病是全球范围内最普遍的公共卫生问题,在高收入国家,缺血性心脏病约占这些病例的一半。这种疾病最重要的风险因素之一是精神和心理因素,尤其是压力体验。
本研究旨在比较缺血性心脏病患者与无心血管疾病者在情绪加工方面的差异,情绪加工是压力评估的关键因素。
采用简单抽样法,从医院确诊为缺血性心脏病并在出院护理和治疗后前来就诊的患者中选取50例。对照组参与者采用邻里对照选择法选取。两组所有成员均填写情绪加工量表。
两组在EPS - 25总分以及未加工情绪迹象、未调节情绪、回避和匮乏等情绪加工维度上存在显著差异。此外,两组在抑制维度上无显著差异。回归的最后一步显示,AVO和IEE子量表的β值分别为10.15和1.05。
结果表明,缺血性心脏病患者使用更多消极的情绪加工方式。
