BACKGROUND: The association between headache and stress is discussed. A powerful source of stress and the ways of relation between stress and headache can differed. The individual vulnerability to stress may be related to one's temperament.
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the role of temperament traits in children with episodic tension-type headaches (ETTH).
METHODS: We examined 120 children, 6-16 years of age, in the Department of Developmental Neurology of the Medical University of Gdansk. All children were diagnosed with ETTH. The control group consisted of 60 age-matched children without headaches. The following instruments of assessment were used: survey-interview, EAS Temperament Survey (Buss and Plomin), and Stress Response Scale (Chandler). The results were evaluated using statistical analysis.
RESULTS: Our results showed differences in temperament traits in children with ETTH compared to children without headaches. The former demonstrated greater temperament instability, i.e., higher emotionality, an intensified level of fear, a lower level of vigour, and a higher level of shyness compared to the control group.
CONCLUSION: Children with ETTH have some different traits than children without headache.
