The present study investigated how patients with acne vulgaris cope with their disease. By means of questionnaires, relations and interactions between acne and psyche were evaluated. In addition to the evaluation of a specific questionnaire for patients with chronic skin disorders (CSD), assessing psychosocial impairment by the disease, depression and social anxiety were investigated in patients with acne. The study included 50 patients with acne. The CSD showed significant correlations with Beck's depression inventory, the interaction-anxiety questionnaire and the health locus of control scale. The CSD revealed significant differences compared to a control group of 33 patients with healthy skin. Furthermore the patients' attitudes towards triggering factors and disease-related limitations in everyday life are presented. The results of the study demonstrate that patients with acne suffer from emotional distress and psychosocial problems caused by their disease; however, impairment is not correlated with the objective severity of acne.
本研究调查了寻常痤疮患者如何应对其疾病。通过问卷调查，评估了痤疮与心理之间的关系和相互作用。除了对慢性皮肤病（CSD）患者的特定问卷进行评估，以评估疾病对心理社会的损害外，还对痤疮患者的抑郁和社交焦虑进行了调查。该研究纳入了50名痤疮患者。CSD与贝克抑郁量表、互动焦虑问卷和健康控制点量表显示出显著相关性。与33名皮肤健康的对照组患者相比，CSD显示出显著差异。此外，还介绍了患者对触发因素和日常生活中与疾病相关限制的态度。研究结果表明，痤疮患者因疾病而遭受情绪困扰和心理社会问题；然而，损害程度与痤疮的客观严重程度无关。
