Aim: There have been few studies done looking at the relationship between resilience, Type D personality, and self-care behavior in patients with heart failure. The purpose of this study was to identify the mediating effect of resilience on the relationship between Type D personality and self-care behavior in patients with heart failure.
Methods: The subjects consisted of a sample of 90 heart failure patients aged ≥20 years who visited the cardiology outpatient clinic in the Chungbuk area of South Korea.
Results: Among 90 patients, 49 subjects (54.0%) were classified as Type D personality, who exhibited statistically significant differences in resilience and self-care behavior (p < .001). A statistically significant correlation was also observed between self-care behavior score and resilience score (p < .01). The resilience had full mediation effects on the relationship between Type D personality and self-care behavior. In other words, the higher their resilience, the better their self-care behavior.
Conclusions: The study showed that resilience and Type D personality have important effects on self-care behavior.

Background: In Japan, the number of patients with dementia is increasing and there is a shortage of human resources who can conduct detailed psychological examinations, and the development and implementation of new tools is essential for improving dementia care. Japan is one of seven sites across the globe focusing on healthcare system preparedness as part of the Davos Alzheimer's Collaborative Early Detection flagship program. As part of this program, Japan implemented new tools including a digital cognitive assessment (DCA) and blood-based biomarker (BBM) to increase rates of early detection of cognitive impairment.
