This study aimed to examine emotional awareness, control of emotions, and the childhood attachment process in fibromyalgia patients.
The observational study was conducted with 117 participants (14 males, 103 females; mean age: 43.9±9.0 years; range, 22 to 64 years) between February 20, 2022, and May 20, 2022. Sixty-one patients and 56 healthy control subjects filled out a form including sociodemographic data, such as age, sex, occupation, and educational status. In addition, the participants answered the Expressing Emotions Scale, Rejection Sensitivity Scale, and Experiences in Close Relationships Scale.
In our study, Expressing Emotions Scale scores are significantly higher in the healthy control group than in the patient group (p<0.05). Rejection Sensitivity Scale scores are significantly higher in the patient group than in the healthy control group (p<0.05). In the Experiences in Close Relationships Scale, a significant difference was determined between the patient and control groups in the avoidant attachment subdimension (p<0.05). Similarly, a significant difference was observed between both groups in terms of the anxiety attachment subdimension (p<0.05).
The ability to express emotions is lower and avoidant and anxious attachment rates are higher in fibromyalgia patients.
本研究旨在探讨纤维肌痛患者的情绪意识、情绪控制及童年依恋过程。
2022年2月20日至2022年5月20日期间，对117名参与者（14名男性，103名女性；平均年龄：43.9±9.0岁；范围22至64岁）进行了观察性研究。61名患者和56名健康对照者填写了一份包含年龄、性别、职业和教育程度等社会人口统计学数据的表格。此外，参与者还回答了情绪表达量表、拒绝敏感性量表和亲密关系经历量表。
在我们的研究中，健康对照组的情绪表达量表得分显著高于患者组（p<0.05）。患者组的拒绝敏感性量表得分显著高于健康对照组（p<0.05）。在亲密关系经历量表中，患者组和对照组在回避依恋子维度上存在显著差异（p<0.05）。同样，两组在焦虑依恋子维度上也观察到显著差异（p<0.05）。
纤维肌痛患者的情绪表达能力较低，回避和焦虑依恋率较高。
