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.
