Abstract :

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of family communication patterns on quality of life mediated by perceived stress in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in patients. The research method was cross-sectional correlation using structural equation modeling. The statistical population included all people with inflammatory bowel disease in Isfahan in 1399, from which 331 subjects were selected by convenience sampling. In this study, family communication model tools (Alcalaa et al, 2004): Quality of Life of Inflammatory Bowel Patients (Fitzpatrick & Koener, 2004) and Perceived Stress Questionnaire (Cohen & Williamson, 1988) were used. Lisrel-V8.8 software was used to analyze the data. Findings showed that the dialogue component has a positive effect on quality of life and a negative effect on perceived stress and compliance component has a negative effect on quality of life and a positive effect on perceived stress (p< 0/05). Findings also showed that family communication patterns through perceived stress have an indirect and significant effect on the quality of life of inflammatory bowel patients (p< 0/05). Based on the findings of this study, it can be said that life stress has an important role in the quality of life of inflammatory bowel patients and it is useful to consider these psychological variables in the training, prevention and treatment of psychiatric patients.
