Abstract:

CHD is the number 1 cause of death globally. Personality type has been widely studied as a risk factor for CHD, although it is still debated. This article aims to identify the personality type and mechanism of personality type that cause CHD and whether coping mechanisms are intermediaries of these mechanisms or not. Articles were selected using the PRISMA method and 32 articles were obtained for analysis. Personality types cause CHD through 3 mechanisms, namely, behavioural, psychological and biological mechanisms that are interrelated, where personality types are also related to coping mechanisms. Although the articles obtained about coping mechanisms were limited, it was found that the avoidance coping mechanism was one of the intermediaries between Type D personality and CHD.
