Fibromyalgia
syndrome: The relationship between alexithymia and attachment style on couple
relationship
This
study will evaluate the quality of committed relationship in couples where at
least one of the partners is diagnosed with fibromyalgia. We will look into how
alexithymia (a condition that affects our ability to recognize and describe
emotions) and attachment style (how people behave in intimate relationships)
influence couple satisfaction when fibromyalgia symptoms are present in the
daily life events. Participants in this study have a diagnosis of
fibromyalgia and are in a long-term intimate relationship.
