    Background:

    • Previous research suggests a retrospective link between stress and psoriasis.
    • Prior studies often utilized non-standardized measures for stress assessment.
    • A prospective, standardized approach is needed to clarify this relationship.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To prospectively investigate the relationship between psoriasis severity and psychological stress.
    • To utilize standardized measures for accurate assessment of stress and psoriasis.

  • Application of multivariate statistical analysis to evaluate correlations.

    • Main Results:

    • A positive correlation was found between psoriasis severity and psychological distress (partial r = 0.31; p < 0.01).
    • A significant positive correlation was observed between psoriasis severity and the impact of adverse life events (partial r = 0.23; p < 0.05).

    Conclusions:

    • Psychological distress and adverse life events are significantly associated with psoriasis severity.
    • Stress reduction strategies may be a beneficial component of psoriasis management.
    • Prospective, standardized assessment confirms a link between stress and psoriasis.
