  Rezumat:  

Locus of control is a theory in personality psychology referring to the extent to which individuals believe that they control events that affect them. Locus of control can be internal (subjects believes that they control their life) or external (subjects believe that the environment, some higher power or other people control their life). Coping has been defined as constantly changing cognitive and behavioral efforts to manage disease and its effects on the ill person. The purpose of the study was to assess the locus of control and coping strategies in patients with cardiovascular diseases. The study was performed on 70 patients suffering from various cardiovascular diseases. Statistical processing was performed using Microsoft Office Excel and GraphPad. Patients suffering from arterial hypertension exhibited an internal locus of control; patients with arterial hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases (like coronary heart disease) expressed an external locus of control. Patients with external locus of control cope through active coping, while patients with internal locus of control do not use this mechanism.

Keywords: cardiovascular disease, coping, locus of control.
