The role of positivity on quality of life outcomes in patients with chronic diseases

Background: Positivity is a general tendency to react to life experiences in a positive way, a pervasive optimistic view of oneself, one’s life, and one’s future, associated with greater positive affection and lower functional impairments. The aim of the study was to examine the role of positivity in predicting the length of hospitalization in patients operated of thoracic surgery and physical and mental health in patients born with Anorectal Malformations (ARM).
