Coping Strategies, Loneliness, and Resilience in Patients With Dermatosis (ESDaP3)

5 juin 2026 mis à jour par: University Hospital, Brest

The European Society for Dermatology & Psychiatry (ESDaP) studies the connection between the skin and the mind. Two previous studies of this type were conducted in 13 and 15 European countries, respectively. The first study assessed the psychological impact of skin diseases (anxiety, depression, sleep disorders), and the second analyzed feelings of stigma, stress, and body dysmorphic disorder (an abnormal perception of one's body).

In this study, new psychological variables will be examined: coping strategies, loneliness, and resilience.

A total of 23 centers will participate in the ESDaP3 study, located in 15 European countries (Austria, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, North Macedonia, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, and the United Kingdom).

The aim of this study is to examine coping strategies, loneliness, and resilience among patients with a skin condition. Coping strategies refer to the various ways a person uses to manage a difficult or stressful situation. Resilience refers to a person's ability to cope with difficult situations, adapt to changes or challenges, and regain a sense of balance despite obstacles. Other factors will be assessed: sleep, anxiety and depression, and quality of life. A questionnaire will be given to your potential partner to assess the impact of the skin condition on their life at this time.

At the study's sole French site, Brest University Hospital, 250 patients with a skin condition and 125 people without a skin condition will be enrolled.

  • Quality of life: Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI)
  • Well-being: Skin Well-Being Scale
  • Impact of dermatosis on the partner: FROM-16 (Family Reported Outcome Measure-16)

The estimated time to complete the questionnaires is 20 minutes; this will also be the duration of participation in this study.

Description de la mesure
Délai
To assess adaptive coping in patients with skin conditions and compare them to those of a control group consisting of individuals with healthy skin.
Délai: 1 day

Brief Coping Orientation to Problems Experienced Inventory (Brief COPE inventory) questionnaire (dispositional format) :

The questionnaire contains 28 items, divided into 14 coping strategies (2 items per strategy); each item is rated on a scale of 1 to 4:

  4. = I almost always do this

The analysis is conducted by subscale (each strategy), with scores ranging from 2 to 8.

The interpretation depends on the coping strategy being measured:

  • for adaptive strategies, a high score is generally positive
  • for less adaptive/dysfunctional strategies, a high score is generally negative
