Objective: This study investigates the relationship between negative cognitive content and the severity of disability associated with migraine in adult populations.
Method: Eighty-one patients, age between 18–65, diagnosed as having migraine according to IHS criteria were asked to fulfill the sociodemographic form, Migraine Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS), Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS), Automatic Thoughts Questionnaire revised (ATQ-R), and Metacognition Questionnaire-30 (MTQ-30). Bivariate correlations and linear regression analysis were performed to investigate the association between MIDAS, DASS, ATQ-R, and MTQ-30 scores. A probability level of p<0.05 was used to indicate statistical significance.
Results: Pearson correlation analysis yielded positively significant association between MIDAS scores and DASS depression, anxiety, stress subscale scores and ATQ-R scores (r¼0.496, p<0.001; r¼0.450, p<0.001; r ¼0.348, p¼0.02; r¼0.376, p¼0.01, respectively). In the linear regression model, DASS depression subscale (p ¼0.047) and Metacognition Questionnaire-30 postive beliefs about worry dimension (p¼0.027) were significant predictors when MIDAS score was a dependent.
Conclusion: Our findings show that higher depression, anxiety, stress levels, and negative thought content are associated with increased migraine-related disability. This study also indicates that depression and positive beliefs about worry predict more migraine-related disability.
