简要总结
Chronic pain, lasting more than three months, is a widespread health issue that negatively impacts daily life, leading to significant emotional distress and functional impairment. Emotional intelligence, defined as the ability to recognize and manage one's own emotions as well as those of others, has been linked to better communication skills and reduced stress, which is a well-known risk factor for chronic pain. Studies have highlighted a correlation between emotional intelligence and certain chronic pain conditions, such as fibromyalgia and migraines. However, no research has yet explored its role in painful temporomandibular disorders (TMD). Given the strong involvement of psychosocial factors in TMD etiology, a better understanding of these elements could improve pain management and pave the way for preventive interventions.
详细描述
This project aims to compare emotional intelligence and various psychosocial factors (anxiety, depression, coping, emotional regulation) between patients with painful temporomandibular disorder (TMD) and a control group without TMD or chronic pain. The study is based on the administration of validated French-language questionnaires during routine dental medicine consultations. Each participant completes these questionnaires in approximately 15 minutes, without any modification to their care. The data collected will help assess the relationships between orofacial pain and emotional factors to improve the understanding and management of affected patients.

研究组 & 干预措施
Evaluation of the potential link between emotional intelligence and chronic orofacial pain.
All included subjects will have the same participation, which consists of completing several standardized questionnaires. These questionnaires assess various psychological and emotional aspects, including anxiety and depressive disorders (HADS questionnaire), coping strategies (Brief-COPE score), emotional regulation (ERS score), fatigue level (EVA scale), and emotional intelligence (TEIQue-SF questionnaire) to compare scores between the DTM group and the control group. Additionally, sociodemographic and psychosocial criteria will be collected to refine the analysis of the results. The completion of these questionnaires is part of routine consultations and does not alter the patients' standard care.
干预措施: Questionnaire and Physical Exam (Other)
