Introduction: The aim of this study is to examine whether the temperament and character traits of young men diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis (IS), known as the three-dimensional deformity of the spine and trunk, which begins to emerge during the growth period and progress with changes in the quality of life in adulthood, are different from those without idiopathic scoliosis.
Material and Method: A total of 162 IS and 162 healthy male individuals were included in the study. Scoliosis level was evaluated with the Cobb method and temperament and character traits were evaluated with the Temperament and Character Inventory. The data were evaluated with SPSS ver.22.0 program and p<0.05 was considered significant in the analyses.
Results: In our study, no significant difference was found between the groups according to the total/subscale scores of temperament dimensions of harm avoidance, novelty seeking and reward dependence. Persistence and novelty seeking-disorderliness subscale scores were significantly lower in study group compared to the healthy control group. There was no significant difference between groups in character trait scores.
Conclusion: The findings of our study revealed that there are differences in temperament and character traits between young men with idiopathic scoliosis and the control group. More studies are needed to determine this difference in women with idiopathic scoliosis and symptomatic individuals.
