Abstract

Introduction. The relevance of the study of predictors of subjective feeling of social support in patients with ulcer disease lies in the development of the concept of internal picture of the disease of somatic patients. Theoretical analysis. Social-psychological coping strategies, being a part of the internal picture of the disease, constitute a significant and insufficiently studied area. This implies the need to consider the parameters of social support and satisfaction with it. Empirical analysis. In this article on the example of patients with ulcer disease the predictors of indicators of satisfaction with social support of patients with chronic somatic diseases are established. Conclusion. For patients with ulcer disease a decrease in satisfaction with social support, first of all, cooperation with the social environment, closeness of emotional contacts and reliance on the external environment is revealed.
