This study examined the associations between coping strategies and quality of life in psoriasis patients. A total of 150 psoriasis patients (M = 74, F = 76) participated in this study. The Dermatology Life Quality Index, the Coping Style Scale, and the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire were administered to participants. A negative association was found between problem-focused coping and quality of life. Additionally, there was a significant positive relationship between emotion-focused coping and quality of life. The results also revealed that psoriasis patients' ability to regulate their emotions may differ significantly by gender. The study's findings suggest that emotion regulation reappraisal moderates the relationship between coping strategies and quality of life among psoriasis patients.
