很少有研究调查了多发性硬化症（MS）患者的人格特征，对这些患者的人格与临床特征之间的关系知之甚少。本研究旨在探讨多发性硬化症患者的人格特征及其与临床特征的关系。研究人群包括74名MS患者和年龄匹配、性别匹配和教育水平匹配的健康对照。所有参与者都被要求完成自我管理的240项气质和性格量表和贝克抑郁量表。MS患者表现出较高的伤害回避（HA）和较低的自我导向分数比对照组，虽然这些差异消失后，控制抑郁症。病程与HA呈正相关，与新奇寻求评分呈负相关。扩展残疾状态量表评分与奖励依赖呈负相关。我们的研究结果表明，MS患者的人格特征和疾病的阶段或损害程度之间可能存在关系。
Few studies have investigated personality characteristics in people with multiple sclerosis (MS), and little is known about the relationship between personality and clinical characteristics in these patients. We aimed to investigate the personality traits of MS patients and their relationship with clinical characteristics. The study population consisted of 74 MS patients and age-matched, sex-matched, and education level-matched healthy controls. All participants were instructed to complete the self-administered 240-item Temperament and Character Inventory and the Beck Depression Inventory. The MS patients exhibited higher harm avoidance (HA) and lower self-directedness scores than the control group, although these differences disappeared after controlling for depression. Duration of the disease was positively correlated with HA and negatively correlated with novelty-seeking scores. Expanded Disability Status Scale scores were negatively correlated with reward dependence. Our results suggest a possible relationship between personality characteristics and the stage of the disease or the degree of damage in MS patients.
