[Correlation between ICIQ-UI-SF score and personality testing results over a urinary incontinent population].

CONCLUSION: We conclude that a correlation between the personality inventory and the ICIQ-UI-SF is feasible. The comparative study demonstrate reliability of answers. Sincerity is established by the Minimult L scale. We confirm and precise literature information over clinical personality pattern of this population and observe relevant elements concerning the psycho-asthenic pattern which depicts an anxious personality with an important feeling of the problem. These elements permit to suspect that a personality disturbance may impact the physiopathology of the micturition. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4. PMID: 26746787 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
