*a backward conditional method was used for the factor selection. The factors that were statistically significant in a univariate analysis (i.e. age, number of surgeries, family status, career level, number of working hours, SF-8 composite mental and physical scores, BRS, ASKU and PSS scores) were used for a multivariate model. The table represents values in the final (7th) step of backward conditional logistic regression, Nagelkerke R Square 0.621
