| Abstract:
Background: Many researches indicate there is a relationship between personality and coping with stress strategies. Patients under chemotherapy and hemodialysis patients, experience a lot of stress during their treatment, therefore, the aim of the present study is examining the relationship between personalities and coping with stress strategies in these patients. Methods: The present study was cross-sectional and correlational. Among all patients who referred to Shohadaye Tajrish and Sahid Modares hospitals, 160 patients (80 individuals with each type of disease) were selected using purposeful sampling method. Neo Personality Questionnaire and the Questionnaire of Styles of Coping with Stressful Conditions by Parker & Andler were the tools used in this study. Results: Findings of the present study indicate that there is a negative significant relationship between neurosis and problem-oriented strategy, a negative significant relationship between flexibility and avoidant coping style and a positive significant relationship between neurosis and avoidant coping style. Conclusion: In hemodialysis patients and patients receiving chemotherapy, personality dimensions such as neurosis and flexibility can predict coping with stress style.
