Background: This study aims to identify the differences between climacteric symptoms, climacteric symptoms management, and well-being according to the D-type personality, and to determine the degree of influence of the D-type personality on the well-being.
Methods: A correlational, cross-sectional research design was used with 169 middle-aged women. Data collection was performed using a structured questionnaire between July and August 2020. Data analyses included descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, X2-test, ANCOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and hierarchical regression analysis were performed with the SPSS WIN 27.0 program.
Results: Type-D personality was identified in 34.3%. Type D women had significantly higher climacteric symptoms, lower climacteric symptoms management and well-being compared with non-type D women. In addition, type D personality had the strongest association with well-being among middle-aged women, followed by climacteric symptoms and climacteric symptoms management.
Conclusions: Interventions that reflect climacteric symptoms and climacteric symptoms management, including type-D personality, may help enhance well-being for middle-aged women in nursing practice.
