Stress, anxiety and depression in heart disease patients: A major challenge for cardiac rehabilitation

2016

International audience; Cardiovascular events and emotional disorders share a common epidemiology, thus suggesting fundamental pathways linking these different diseases. Growing evidence in the literature highlights the influence of psychological determinants in somatic diseases. A patient's socio-economic aspects, personality traits, health behavior and even biological pathways may contribute to the course of cardiovascular disease. Cardiac events often occur suddenly and the episode can be traumatic for people not prepared for such an event. In this review of the literature, the authors tackle the question of psychobiological mechanisms of stress, in a pathophysiological approach to funda…

Effectiveness of a home exercise programme in low back pain: a randomized five-year follow-up study

2007

Background and Purpose. Therapeutic exercise has been shown to be beneficial in decreasing pain and in increasing functioning in patients with chronic low back pain. However, longitudinal follow-up studies are small in number, and often limited in the numbers of subjects due to drop-outs. In addition there is a shortage of real control groups in most cases. The purpose of the present study was to describe long-term changes in intensity of low back pain and in functioning for two study groups five years after undertaking a home exercise programme. Method. This was a randomized follow-up study over five years. Fifty-seven subjects were reassessed with questionnaires five years after their ini…

Relationship of subjective helplessness and pain perception after electric skin stimuli

2000

Objective and subjective controllability of painful stimuli are important factors in pain perception. The present study investigated direct and indirect effects of uncontrollability on perceived pain intensity in humans. Forty-eight healthy male volunteers participated in a laboratory experiment using a reaction time paradigm to induce controllable or uncontrollable feedback conditions in two randomly selected groups. Under controllable conditions, unpleasant electric skin shocks were applied, only when the actual time exceeded an individual threshold; under uncontrollable conditions, skin shocks were applied randomly using a yoked control design. Subjective helplessness, perceived pain int…

Who enjoys listening to sad music and why?

2011

although people generally avoid negative emotional experiences in general, they often enjoy sadness portrayed in music and other arts. The present study investigated what kinds of subjective emotional experiences are induced in listeners by sad music, and whether the tendency to enjoy sad music is associated with particular personality traits. One hundred forty-eight participants listened to 16 music excerpts and rated their emotional responses. As expected, sadness was the most salient emotion experienced in response to sad excerpts. However, other more positive and complex emotions such as nostalgia, peacefulness, and wonder were also evident. Furthermore, two personality traits – Opennes…

2020

Abstract Background Academic emotions (e.g., enjoyment of learning or anxiety) play a significant role in academic performance and educational choices. An important factor explaining academic emotions can be students’ temperament and the goodness-of-fit between their temperament and their social environment, including parents. Objective This study investigated the unique and interactive effects of early adolescents’ and their parents’ temperament types on adolescents’ academic emotions in literacy and mathematics. Method The participants in the study consisted of 690 adolescent–parent dyads. Parents rated their own and their adolescents’ temperaments, and adolescents reported their positive…

Persoonallisuuden ja oppimistyylin välinen yhteys

2012

Tässä pro gradu -tutkielmassa pyrittiin selvittämään onko persoonallisuuden ja oppimistyylin välillä yhteyttä ja millainen tämä yhteys on. Tämänkaltaista tutkimusta ei juuri ole tehty Suomessa, vaikka kansainvälisesti, erityisesti Euroopassa, persoonallisuuden ja oppimistyylin välistä yhteyttä on tutkittu jo vuosikymmeniä. Tutkimusjoukkona oli 855 Suomen Mensa ry:n jäsentä. Tutkimus toteutettiin postitse lähetetyllä kyselylomakkeella ja analyysi toteutettiin erilaisin tilastollisin menetelmin, joista tulosten kannalta keskeisin oli regressioanalyysi. Persoonallisuuden taustateoriana käytettiin Lewis R. Goldbergin Big Five -mallia ja oppimistyylin taustateoriana toimi David A. Kolbin kokemuk…
