The aim of this study was to compare health anxiety, Difficulties in emotion regulation, and metacognitive beliefs in people with and without skin diseases. This study was a comparative study and the statistical population of the study included all people with skin disorders who were referred to dermatologists in Urmia in the period 1997-98 and Unimportant people in Urmia. Sampling in this study was purposeful and 100 people (50 people with skin disorders and 50 Unimportant people) were selected by this method. Data were assessed using the Health Anxiety Inventory (18-HAI) (Salkovskis & Warwick, 2002), the Emotion Difficulty Questionnaire (DERS) (Gritz & Roemer, 2004), and the Metacognitive Beliefs Questionnaire (MCQ-30) (Wells, 1997). , Was collected. The obtained data were analyzed using a multivariate analysis of variance. The results of this study showed health anxiety, difficulty in regulating emotion, and metacognitive beliefs (positive beliefs about worry, negative beliefs about thought control, cognitive uncertainty, need for thought control, and cognitive self-awareness) in people with and without diseases. There is a significant difference in skin level at the level of 0.05 (P <0.05). These findings indicate that health anxiety, difficulty in regulating emotion, and metacognitive beliefs are among the variables associated with skin diseases and are seen differently in people with skin diseases than in the non-skin group. . Accordingly, psychological training can be used to modulate vulnerable psychological characteristics in this group of people.
