ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the correlation between the subjective well-being,optimism and coping mode of patients with inflammatory bowel disease(IBD). Methods A total of 159 IBD patients were surveyed and analyzed by the general information questionnaire, General Well-Being Schedule, Revised The Life Orientation Test, and Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire. Results The subjective well-being scores of IBD patients were (75.04 ± 14.32). And the Pearson analysis showed that subjective well-being scores were positively correlated with optimism scores and positive coping scores(r=0.408, P＜0.01; r=0.429, P＜0.01). Negative coping was negatively correlated with subjective well-being scores(r=-0.174, P＜0.05). Optimism had a direct positive predictive effect on subjective well-being with a path coefficient of 0.22, and coping mode was an intermediary variable of optimism and subjective well-being. Conclusion The subjective well-being of patients with IBD needs to be further improved, which is both related to optimism and coping mode. Coping mode takes effects as a mediator in optimism and subjective well-being.
