The statistical population of this study was all patients with migraine headache, who were referred to the neurology clinic of Ardabil in 2020. 65 patients with migraine, who were referred to the neurology clinic of Ardabil and 65 people from normal people were selected by convenience sampling method. Data were collected by anxiety sensitivity inventory-revised, Toronto alexithymia scale-20 and Pittsburgh sleep quality index and were analyzed via multivariate analysis of variance analysis.
Results: Findings indicated that there is significant difference between the anxiety sensitivity, alexithymia and sleep quality in patients with migraine and normal people (P< 0/05).
Conclusions: Based on the results of this study, it can be said that patients with migraine had more anxiety sensitivity and alexithymia and low sleep quality than normal ones. These findings indicate that physicians and psychotherapist should pay essential attention to the special psychological attributes of patients with migraine headache at the time of prevention and treatment.
