The relationship between personality dimensions with resiliency and sense of coherence with respect to the role of spiritual health in the patients' candidate for eye surgery.

Introduction: This research aimed to determine the relationship between personality dimensions with the rate of resiliency and internal cohesion regarding the intermediary role of spiritual health in candidate patients for eye surgery. Methods: The method used in this is of correlation type, and statistical population in this project included all eye patients chosen for eye surgery who were examined at technical eye clinics in Tehran. The statistical sample included 200 patients from the statistical population who were chosen through a targeted sampling method. The data collection tools were Conner and Davidson's tolerance questionnaire (2003), Maccary and Costa's personality questionnaire (1985), Antonowski's internal cohesion scale (1970), and Politzin and Elison's spiritual health questionnaire (1982). The research hypotheses were examined through regression analysis, Pearson's correlation, and path analysis. Results: The results showed that the calculated fit indices of the structural model of the research were correlated with the five dimensions of personality and internal cohesion of patients undergoing eye surgery with respect to the mediator role of spiritual health with 88% confidence. Investigation of path analysis coefficients showed a significant relationship between exogenous and intermediary variables on resiliency and internal cohesion (P value = 0.00). Conclusion: According to the results of the research, the spiritual health variable plays a significant mediating role for exogenous and endogenous variables in this model. Therefore, personality traits not only directly influence resilience and internal cohesion but also indirectly influence spiritual well-being.
