摘要：Introduction and objective. Every mental disorder may cause a number of negative consequences in the personal livesof the patients and their families as well as in their social relations. Acceptance of the disease is a crucial factor in theprocess of coping with the problems resulting from it. Acceptance of the disease may significantly influence the reductionof negative emotional reactions it causes. Consequently, it may contribute to better adaptation of the patients and hencemay facilitate the process of recovery. The study attempts to define the socio-psychological conditioning of the degree ofdisease acceptance among patients treated for psychical disorders.Materials and method. Opinion surveys were carried out in 2013 among a group of 240 patients treated in Mental HealthClinic in Chełm, eastern Poland. The study applied Acceptance Illness Scale – AIS B. Felton, T. A. Revenson, G.A. Hinrichsen,adapted in Poland by Z. Juczyński, as well as a socio-demographic questionnaire.Results. The analysis of the obtained results revealed a similar level of acceptance of such diseases as anxiety disorders(24.41±8.52), depression (22.80±7.51) and personality disorders (23.89±7.89). The medical records of all patients fitted amongthe low average.Conclusions. The greatest problem in the researched group related to the social consequences of the psychical disorders.Those questioned were afraid of the negative reactions of others and of being a burden to their families. The level ofacceptance was not correlated with independent variables (age, gender, education, place of residence, general well-being).
