Well-being and distress of patients with Parkinson's disease: a comparative investigation.
Francesca VescovelliDaniele SartiChiara RuiniPublished in: International psychogeriatrics (2017)
Findings confirmed previous literature on other neurological conditions, showing that PD may be associated with greater psychological distress, lower levels of LS and QoL. At the same time, PD patients may preserve their PWB, which is a protective factor for mental and physical health. The presence of these psychological resources is inversely related to functional impairments. Future studies should better investigate the pattern of PWB in PD.
