The prevalence of cardiovascular diseases is increasing in industrial and developing countries. However, few studies have investingated the effect of psychological factors, especially personality factors as a risk factor in heart diseases. Therefore, this study aimed to compare irrational beliefs, social support and type A personalityin patients with coronary heart disease and healthy people. Using convenience sampling, 100 patients were selected who referred to Heshmat Hospital of Rasht city from April to September 2010. Also, 100 healthy subjects were selected among the people who accompanied the patients. They were matched in terms of some demographic factors. They were completed irrational beliefs, social support and type A questionnaires. Result showed that there were significant differences between both groups interms of irrational beliefs (demand for approval, high self-expectation, blame proneness, frustration reactive, anxiety, helplessness for change), social support (family support) and type A personality. Hence, there is a close relationship between irrational beliefs, social support, and Type A personalityand incidence and continuance of coronary heart disease. So, the application of psychological interventions seems to be necessary for controlling of the mentioned variables.
