Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, posing significant challenges to public health systems and individuals' well-being. While medical treatments have advanced, there is growing recognition of the importance of psychological factors in influencing the course and outcomes of CVDs. Among these factors, personality traits and anxiety have gained attention for their potential impact on quality of life (QoL) and general health outcomes in cardiovascular patients. Personality type D, characterized by a combination of negative affectivity and social inhibition, has been identified as a relevant personality construct in cardiovascular health research. Individuals with Type D personality traits may experience heightened psychological distress and engage in maladaptive coping strategies, potentially exacerbating the burden of CVDs. Additionally, generalized anxiety, commonly observed in cardiovascular patients, has been associated with adverse health outcomes, including decreased treatment adherence and impaired QoL. Despite increasing recognition of the importance of personality and anxiety in cardiovascular health, there remains a need to understand the mechanisms through which these factors influence patient outcomes. This study aims to investigate the mediating role of generalized anxiety in the relationship between personality type D and QoL and general health in cardiovascular patients. By exploring these relationships, we aim to enhance our understanding of the psychological pathways underlying the impact of personality on cardiovascular health outcomes, with implications for tailored interventions to improve patient well-being and treatment outcomes. This study aimed to explore the mediating role of generalized anxiety in the relationship between Type D personality, QoL, and general health among cardiovascular patients.

This study adopted a fundamental research approach, employing a descriptive and correlational design with structural equation modeling (SEM). The study population consisted of all cardiovascular patients in Mashhad, Iran, during the year 2019. A convenience sampling method utilized to recruit a sample of 180 patients from cardiovascular clinics in Mashhad. Data collected using standardized instruments, including the D-Denolt (2007) personality type questionnaire, the World Health Organization Quality of Life assessment (WHOQOL), and the Generalized Anxiety Inventory developed by Goldberg & Hiller (1972) and Spitzer et al. (2006). Descriptive statistics such as frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation utilized for data analysis at the descriptive level, while inferential analyses employed Pearson correlation and structural equation tests.

The results of the study revealed significant associations between Type D personality, generalized anxiety, QoL, and general health among cardiovascular patients. Type D personality demonstrated a significant positive relationship with generalized anxiety (p < 0.001), indicating that individuals with Type D personality traits experienced heightened levels of anxiety. Additionally, Type D personality inversely associated with QoL (p < 0.001) and general health (p < 0.001), suggesting that individuals with Type D personality traits reported lower levels of QoL and general health status. Furthermore, generalized anxiety exhibited significant negative correlations with both QoL (p < 0.001) and general health (p < 0.001), indicating that increased levels of anxiety associated with poorer QoL and general health outcomes among cardiovascular patients. Moreover, path analysis techniques revealed that generalized anxiety played a mediating role in the relationship between Type D personality, QoL and general health outcomes (p < 0.05). This suggests that the presence of generalized anxiety partially explained the adverse effects of Type D personality on health-related outcomes in cardiovascular patients.

In conclusion, this study provides valuable insights into the complex interplay between personality traits, mental health factors, and health outcomes in cardiovascular patients. The findings underscore the importance of considering psychological factors, such as Type D personality and generalized anxiety, in the assessment and management of CVDs. Interventions aimed at addressing anxiety management and maladaptive personality traits may hold promise in improving QoL and general health outcomes among cardiovascular patients. By elucidating the mediating role of generalized anxiety, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of the psychological mechanisms underlying health outcomes in CVDs, thereby informing holistic approaches to patient care and management

AbstractThe present study was conducted with the aim of developing a model of psychological well-being of divorced women based on public health, financial distress and social support mediated by positive thinking. The statistical population of the present study included all divorced women (20 to 45 years old) in Khomin city in 2021-2022. The sample size was 429 people and 3 non-random sampling methods were available. All completed the Goldberg & Hiller (1979) General Health Questionnaire, the financial distress of Prawitz et al. (2006), the social support of Zimet et al. (1988), the positive thinking of Ingram and Wisnicki (1988), and the psychological well-being of Ryff (1989). Pearson correlation method and structural equation modeling using SPSSV19 and AMOSV20 software were used to analyze the data. The results showed that the variables of general health (0.20 and 0.14), financial distress (-0.18 and -0.17) and social support (0.33 and 0.20) had direct and significant effects on positive thinking, respectively. And had psychological well-being. In addition, positive thinking (0.15) had direct and significant effects on psychological well-being. The results also showed that the three variables of general health (0.10), financial distress (-0.10) and social support (0.11) have an indirect and significant effect on the psychological well-being of divorced women. Based on the results of this study, all three variables of public health, financial distress and social support have significant direct and indirect effects on psychological well-being through positive thinking. Therefore, this model can be used to strengthen and promote the psychological well-being of divorced women, and therefore the knowledge of counselors, psychologists, therapists, social scientists and other specialists of these variables to promote the psychological well-being of divorced women is important.

The aim of the current research is to test the causal model of public health based on trust in God and social support with the mediation of personality traits in women. The research method of this study is structural equation correlation. The studied population included all female heads of families covered by Izeh city between May and July 1401 in the number of 1300 cases. 230 female heads of the family were selected based on JPower software as a purposeful sampling. To collect data, Beck and McDonald (2004) Trust in God questionnaires, Multidimensional Perceived Social Support Scale (1988), McCree and Costa (1989) five-factor personality scale, and Goldberg's General Health (1972) were used. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling (path analysis). The analysis results confirmed the fit of the hypothetical research model. Path analysis coefficients showed that trust in God and social support have a direct effect on public health. Among the personality traits: neuroticism has a negative effect on public health, and extroversion, adaptability, responsibility, and empiricism have a direct and significant effect on public health. Also, trust in God and social support through personality traits have an indirect effect on general health. Therefore, it can be said that there is a relationship between trust in God and social support with general health, and this relationship can be moderated by the role of personality traits.
