| Abstract: |
This study described rates of clinically significant psychological distress (CSPD) among adolescents and young adults (AYA) with IBD and examined whether demographic variables, disease characteristics, or physical health functioning differed as a function of CSPD. 76 AYA participated, and 25% reported CSPD based on a BSI Global Symptom Inventory (GSI) T score ≥ 63 or 2 or more BSI subscale T scores ≥ 63. Demographic and disease factors did not consistently differentiate those with and without CSPD. In 7 of 10 analyses, those with CSPD had poorer physical health functioning. Findings suggest potential value in routine assessment of CSPD. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
