Core Tip Sense of coherence (SOC) has emerged as an important correlate of psychological distress and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) across several chronic diseases. The associations between SOC and both psychological distress and HRQoL in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remain unknown. Here, SOC was inversely associated with depressive and anxiety symptoms. Anxiety symptoms were strong independent correlates of most aspects of HRQoL. Anxiety mediated the associations of SOC with satisfaction with health, physical, mental, and social relations HRQoL. Thus, SOC should be considered an important construct influencing IBD-related distress and HRQoL. Future prospective studies should confirm these findings.
