Acronym
IPQ

Description
The IPQ was developed to measure illness perceptions in a variety of illnesses. This questionnaire assesses perceptions on each of the five dimensions by asking patients for their own beliefs about their condition; The major cognitive components identified from research are: Identity - which is comprised of the label of the illness and the symptoms the patient views as being part of the disease; Cause - personal ideas about aetiology which may include simple single causes or more complex multiple causal models; Time-line - how long the patient believes the illness will last. These can be categorised into acute, chronic or episodic; Consequences - expected effects and outcome of the illness; and Cure/control - how one recovers from, or controls, the illness.

TCI operates with seven dimensions of personality traits: four so-called temperaments Novelty Seeking (NS) Harm Avoidance (HA) Reward Dependence (RD) Persistence (PS) and three so-called characters Self-Directedness (SD) Cooperativeness (CO) Self-Transcendence (ST) Each of these traits has a varying number of subscales. The dimensions are determined from a 240-item questionnaire. The TCI is based on a psychobiological model that attempts to explain the underlying causes of individual differences in personality traits. (Wikipedia,2018)
