Abstract

Purpose. The study aims to examine theoretically and empirically the model of personality traits and to establish the relationship between expressed emotion (EE) and affective temperamental traits of relatives of service users with chronic diseases of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT).

Methods. The study uses theoretical methods and psychometric measures: the Family Attitude Scale (FAS), Level of Expressed Emotion Scale (LEE), the Temperament Evaluation – Short Version (TEMPS-A) questionnaire.

Results.The results of the study indicate that there are moderate positive correlations between the relatives’ EE and the cyclothymic type (r=.394, p<.01), depressive type (r=.334, p<.01) irritatable type (r=.374, p<.01). At the same time, we observe a moderate negative correlation between FAS and hyperthymic type (r=-.340, p<.01). Significant differences were established only between perceived support in female and male service users at the p<.05 level. In particular, male service users have a higher level of perceived support compared to female service users. The results show no correlation between perceived EE, age and duration of the disease.

Conclusions. EE is an important construct that characterizes the interaction between service users and their relatives, which is related to both the temperamental traits of relatives and the characteristics of the service users themselves.
