Aim of this study was to examine the association between Type D personality and burnout syndrome among students of healthcare professions. In this context, Type D personality is considered as negative factor with regard to burnout syndrome due to negative affectivity and problematic social interactions typical for this type of personality. The research sample included 97 university students of psychology, nursing and midwifery (95.9 % females; age 20.2±1.49). Type D Personality Subscale (NS 14), and School Burnout Inventory (SBI) were used. Linear regression models and Student’s t-test were employed as statistical methods. Negative affectivity subscale of Type D questionnaire significantly predicted the burnout syndrome in our sample (β = 0,53; 95 % CI: 0,41;0,92), however, social inhibition subscale was not found to be significant burnout predictor. Total explained variance in the linear regression model was 26.9 %. Students who were identified as Type D personality scored significantly higher in burnout syndrome questionnaire (t= -2.58 p<0,01). A study results indicate that individuals with the Type D personality are at elevated risk for burnout syndrome. Type D personality is characterized by using maladaptive coping strategies in stress situations, thus specialized intervention programs targeted on increasing the social skills including positive coping strategies should be included in burnout prevention programs, especially for those who are at higher risk of burnout development.

Cieľom tejto štúdie bolo zistiť súvislosť medzi osobnosťou typu D a syndrómom vyhorenia u študentov pomáhajúcich profesií. Z teoretických východísk vyplýva, že osobnosť typu D je možné považovať za rizikovú z hľadiska rozvoja syndrómu vyhorenia, vzhľadom na negatívnu afektivitu a problémy v sociálnych interakciách typické pre tento typ osobnosti. Výskumný súbor zahŕňal 97 vysokoškolských študentov a študentiek psychológie, ošetrovateľstva a pôrodnej asistencie (95,9 % žien; priemerný vek 20,2±1,49). Ako výskumný nástroj bol použitý dotazník NS 14 (Type D Personality Subscale) pre zistenie osobnosti typu D a dotazník SBI (School Burnout Inventory) na meranie syndrómu vyhorenia v škole. Výsledky boli štatisticky spracované za pomoci lineárneho regresného modelu a Studentovho t- testu. Subškála Negatívna afektivita dotazníka NS 14významne predikovala úroveň syndrómu vyhorenia vo výskumnom súbore (β = 0,53; 95 % CI: 0,41;0,92), avšak subškála Sociálna inhibícia nebola preukázaná ako významný prediktor vyhorenia. Celková vysvetlená variancia v lineárnom regresnom modeli bola 26,9 %. Študenti, ktorí boli identifikovaní ako osobnosť typu D, skórovali výrazne vyššie v syndróme vyhorenia v porovnaní so študentmi bez charakteristík osobnosti typu D (t = -2,58; p<0,01). Výsledky štúdie ukazujú, že u jedincov s vysokým skóre v škále osobnosti typu D sú prítomné tiež zvýšené hladiny syndrómu vyhorenia. Osobnosť typu D sa vyznačuje použitím maladaptívnych stratégií zvládania v stresových situáciách, preto by mali byť do programov prevencie syndrómu vyhorenia zahrnuté špecializované intervenčné postupy zamerané na zvyšovanie sociálnych zručností, a to najmä pre ľudí so zvýšeným rizikom rozvoja vyhorenia.

The aim of this study was to investigate the defence styles of individuals with type D personality. The study involved 62 individuals: 31 were respondents diagnosed with the coronary heart disease and 31 healthy subjects (without any cardiovascular system conditions). The average age in both groups was 61 years. Three research techniques were used in the study: a survey including demographic and medical parameters; a questionnaire for the evaluation of the type D personality – DS14 designed by Denollet; Defense Style Questionnaire DSQ- 40 designed by Bond and Wesley (1996). The subjects with the distressed personality made use of all defence styles, but they chose the least adaptive the most often. The non-adaptive style, imaginatively-distorting style and self-sacrificing style were presented more frequently by individuals with the distressed personality, while the adaptive style was chosen more often by respondents not demonstrating any traits of the type D personality. Meanwhile, the non-adaptive style prevailed in both study groups. The type D personality is associated most strongly with such defence mechanisms, as: somatization, consumption activities, projection, sublimation, acting out, regression, reaction formation, social withdrawal, fantasy and isolation. The defence mechanisms of suppression and inhibition are not specific for the distressed personality.

The last few years have seen an increase in the awareness of a specific heart disease referred to as takotsubo cardiomyopathy. The evidence from the literature demonstrates that psychological variables (especially personality traits) can have a significant impact on the manifestations of different heart diseases. Little is known, however, about the psychological characteristics of takotsubo patients. The primary purpose of this research was to extract the specific personality traits of patients with takotsubo syndrome. Our research covered 76 participants divided into three groups: the clinical group-patients with takotsubo cardiomyopathy (n = 30); Comparison Group 1-individuals with acute myocardial infarction group (n = 21); and Comparison Group 2-heart-healthy persons (n = 25). The study included psychological tests and an MRI examination. The psychological methods used in the research were the NEO Personality Inventory, the Type D Scale, and the assessment of the occurrence of stressful life events. Most takotsubo patients reported stressful life events before the occurrence of takotsubo symptoms. In our studies, it was not typical for takotsubo to be associated type D personality. Takotsubo patients have experienced negative emotions but do not suppress their emotions and participate socially without emotional inhibitions. Moreover, patients are open to experience, have average self-control, and tend to be dutiful and dependable. It is possible that these personality traits could facilitate the healing process.
