إدراك المرض ومصدر الضبط والرضا عن الحياة لدى مرضى القلب

Abstract EN

The current study aims to find out the relationship between the illness perception and the dimensions of the Locus of control and life satisfaction using the Desouki Scale 1996 and the extent to which this is related to each of the illness perception using (IPQ-R) Mos.

Morris Scale 2002, and the Locus of control on the Wellston scale 2007 among diagnosed heart patients, using the descriptive approach, on an intended sample of 30 patients in the Department of Internal Medicine at Mustafa Baghdadi Hospital in Tamanrasset, and using the SPSS 25 program, the hypotheses resulted the following: the more patients become aware of their disease by building perceptions about the nature of heart disease and how to deal with it, the less they suffer, and the higher their levels of satisfaction.

the source of internal health control for patients also has an important role in increasing satisfaction with their lives, the external source of control (luck and influence) is not related to life satisfaction, as for illness perception, it also increases in those who have the (internal) Locus of control.

there is no relationship to the Locus of control for luck and influence among heart patients in Tamanrasset.

the results were discussed by the reality and Leventhal Common- Sense model.
