The Relationship between Functioning Levels and Exercise Addiction, Personality, and Temperament Characteristics in Patients with Bipolar Disorder during Remission Period

Ali Inaltekin, Ibrahim Yagci.


Abstract
Objective: Bipolar disorder (BD) progresses in episodes and includes periods of remission between episodes. Although symptoms are decreased during remission, patients' functioning levels may be lower than the pre-disease period. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between the level of functioning and exercise addiction, temperament and personality traits in patients with BD in remission.

Methods:In this study, BD patients who have been in remission for three months and more were evaluated. Young Mani Rating Scale and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale were used to determine the status of remission. Bipolar Disorder Functioning Scale was used for functioning, Eysenck Personality Survey-Revised Short Form for personality, TEMPS-A temperament scale for temperament, and the Exercise Addiction Scale was used for exercise addiction.

Results:92 BD patients in remission were included in the study. A positive relationship was found between functioning level and hyperthymic temperament and extraversion, and a negative relationship was found between depressive temperament, cyclothymic temperament, irritable temperament, anxious temperament, neuroticism, and psychoticism. Although these patients had a certain degree of exercise dependence, it did not have a relationship with functioning.

Conclusion: Functionality may be affected by personality and temperament characteristics during remission periods in BD. Psychosocial interventions in these areas may be beneficial in the treatment of these patients.

Key words: Keywords: Bipolar disorder, functioning, remission, personality trait
