Depression, Anxiety Influence Recall of Medical Symptoms in different WaysThat new research affect how to report common physical symptoms that suggest depression and anxiety of the people, but to each condition to display personal medical history, certain effects.

For decades hypothesized that researchers will lead to the negative emotions of the common physical symptoms such as inflated report headaches and stomach.

Psychologist, University of Iowa have discovered people suffering symptoms of many past and feel depressed reports. People feel insecure, as opposed to reports many symptoms at the moment.

Report exposes the latest issue of the journal of personality and social psychology.

To is, how do doctors diagnose and treat symptoms patients report, and frequency of occurrence of intense decision and study author Dr. Jerry Suls do factors such as reported feeling of how influence understanding is important.

Previous research has inflated phenomena reports “negative effects,” links also neuroticism. Population of anger this personality trait was fifth out, including frequent feelings of anxiety, fear, irritation and sorrow is believed.

Bulk separation rather than feelings of each of their effect on recall of temperamental UI researchers examine, but better than them.

Sad our data suggestions that people walk into a doctor’s Office feeling experienced more symptoms than probably didn’t really remember tend to be the Suls said.

Experience “that something is wrong at the moment if you are coming to the fear of people scan his body and easier to read all your senses feeling, physicians ‘ offices. Is the associated associated recall us depression disease ruminants and negative experiences of exaggerated fears vigilance current potentially negative ones “and he said.

UI Suls Dr. Bryant Howren, Psychology Department, and the implementation of innovative strategies in practice (CRIISP) Postdoctoral Fellow, Research Center and study co-author.

The effects of the depression of the first part of the study, 144 undergraduate students questionnaires to evaluate their level in completing the common physical symptoms of 15, they past 3 weeks experienced indicated. After analyzing the physical symptoms such as loss of changes in depression, loss of appetite and sleep more researcher believed to have experienced more symptoms than they felt depressed people is found.

“Can they really more behavior occurs. to be sure, “said Suls. “But all these people had healthier nominal. this happened to feel blue thought about each actual symptoms of same number of people are more of them experience it is experienced.

Another phase of the report, research examined current symptoms. Assign groups of raw samples of 125. to provoke certain moods, details for each group, they feel angry, anxious, depressed, wrote happy or neutral experience about 15 minutes.

Now feeling the checklist of the 24 completed the symptoms (weakness and fatigue, musculoskeletal system, respiratory, gastrointestinal tract). Reports category of anxiety mood of participants of physical phenomena in higher numbers.

“You can tell people ‘, you they care–not to produce the physiological reaction of pounding heart and Sweaty Palms? ‘ “Said Suls. “But, such as the physical manifestation of all our current – a general increase observed – result of tiredness to be fearful or nervous system is not in General”.

Researchers writing and exercise 120 students-for repeatedly in different groups-only at this time, recollection symptoms report joined. Is an average depressed, a neutral group only reported one or two of the Group of anxious people 5 current symptoms, reported.

On average, seven symptoms occurring only sad group of other participants, reports reflect the past three weeks reminded me about three.

“Sad people feel people didn’t affect what at this point, feeling is reported in the recent past, more than that had symptoms associated with the report” and Suls said. “Anxiety and that we do the opposite to saw. Reports for more information, but did not report more symptoms over the past three weeks, at the moment.

Health care providers is to discount the Suls Howren symptoms patients feel are not encouraging. They, however, be displayed on how to recognize symptoms of the patient’s current and past is a different emotion to note to encourage health care professionals.

“Ideally, patients of the doctor easily their anxiety and sadness are experiencing when you visit whether to engage to understand” and Suls said. “Some cases it’s symptoms surface symptom diary patient requests to ensure accuracy seek significant other what you observed, there. 」

Was in the age of participants, a healthy student to intentionally cut limitation of a study, the author chose to confuse. Because other studies can encode the prejudice recalls to the elderly or that is associated with the physical symptoms emotional instability of depression and anxiety mood), such as around age 40 indicates a decrease.

Focuses on the old Suls Howren future behavior report study or chronic sick adults.
