“…The two groups showed significant differences in somatization, interpersonal sensitivity, and anxiety. This finding was consistent with a body of research (Uçal et al, 2017;Xi et al, 2012;Xiaofei et al, 2015) (Zhang et al, 2020). This result can be explained by the fact that allergic rhinitis disease not only negatively affects the patients' physical condition but also affects their psychological health (Meltzer, 2016).…”

“…In women, the scores in depression, hypochondriasis, and hysteria were significantly higher (Rodinkova et al, 2019). Based on the results of other studies, statistically significant differences are found between the scores of the allergic groups compared to the healthy ones in somatization, obsession, aggression, psychosis (Xi et al, 2012), anxiety, depression (Xiaofei et al, 2015), and neurosis (Uçal et al, 2017).…”

“…However, it is unclear whether mental disorders cause or result from allergic diseases (Tas & Caglar, 2019). Problems in focusing, chronic fatigue, loss of appetite, under-achievement at school (academic failure), low self-image, unemployment, and less irritability have increased the rate of mental disorders, especially depression, anxiety, and sleep problems in those from allergic rhinitis (Chen et al, 2013;Kim et al, 2017;Uçal et al, 2017).…”

Objective: Allergic rhinitis, as a global health problem, accounts for several psychological disorders, including fatigue, mood changes, depression, anxiety, and disrupted Quality of Life. How people cope with the symptoms of this disease is essential. The present research is pioneering in comparing the QoL, psychological state, and cognitive emotion regulation strategies of patients with allergic rhinitis and healthy individuals. Methods: Aligned with the purpose of the study, 132 patients and 132 healthy subjects were assigned to two groups. Both groups responded to the QoL symptom checklist (SCL90) and a short form of the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ). One-way multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was run to make between-group comparisons. Results: The findings revealed that allergic patients had a lower QoL. Similarly, the two groups showed statistically significant differences in physical health, environmental life, and overall QoL. Clinical symptoms prevailed more in the allergic group compared to the healthy. Also, these two groups differed significantly regarding somatization, interpersonal sensitivity, and anxiety sub-scales. The healthy group used more adaptive cognitive emotion regulation strategies (for instance, acceptance and positive reevaluation) than the allergic group. In addition, statistically significant divergences were found in the catastrophizing strategy, which prevailed more in the allergic group. Conclusion: Given the present findings, patients with allergic rhinitis have lower psychological health and QoL compared to the healthy population. These unfavorable conditions can result from inefficient use of cognitive emotion regulation strategies that mutually link allergic and clinical symptoms to the patients’ QoL.

“…For example, poor work support, high work demands, high stress and perceived control over indoor climate are associated with decreased subjective IAQ in workplaces [ 11 , 12 , 13 ]. There is also evidence that psychological processes and disorders are associated with IA-related symptoms such as symptoms of rhinitis [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ] and asthma [ 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 ]. A limitation of previous research, however, is that it focuses mainly on adult populations; our knowledge about other age groups such as school-age children is inadequate.…”

The effect of students’ psychosocial problems on their reporting of indoor air quality (subjective IAQ) and indoor air-related (IA-related) symptoms has not been studied in schools in a longitudinal setting. Therefore, we analyzed whether changes in students’ psychosocial problems (socioemotional difficulties and perceived teacher–student relations) between the beginning of seventh grade (age 12–13 years) and the end of ninth grade (15–16 years) predicted subjective IAQ and IA-related symptoms at the end of ninth grade. In order to explore the independent effect of psychosocial factors, we focused only on students in schools without observed indoor air problems. The analysis was of longitudinal data (N = 986 students) using latent change modelling. Increased socioemotional difficulties were related to more IA-related symptoms (standardized beta = 0.20) and deteriorated subjective IAQ (standardized beta = 0.20). Increased problems in teacher–student relations were related to deteriorated subjective IAQ (standardized beta = 0.21). Although students’ psychosocial problems explained only 9–13% of the total variances, our findings support the notion that psychosocial factors also need to be taken into account in the evaluation of IAQ and the prevalence of IA-related symptoms in schools.
