    Les individus qui présentent des troubles bipolaires ont des problèmes d’ajustement importants. Pour faire face à ces troubles, la prise de traitement médicamenteux est la stratégie de 1ère ligne toutefois, elle ne permet pas systématiquement un rétablissement total. Par ailleurs, le faible niveau d’adhérence est fréquent ce qui entraîne des conséquences néfastes. Il est donc essentiel de comprendre les processus et mécanismes qui participent à la régulation d’une maladie. Pour ce faire, cette thèse mobilise le Common Sense Model (CSM) et se propose d’étudier l’applicabilité du CSM (1) dans les troubles psychiques ; (2) dans les troubles bipolaires et (3) le poids du savoir socio-culturel dans les représentations des troubles bipolaires. Six études qui mobilisaient des méthodes et des participants différents ont été conduites. Globalement, les résultats soutiennent que les processus identifiés par le CSM nous permettent de mieux appréhender la régulation des troubles bipolaires et l’efficacité de la psychoéducation. Plus particulièrement, les représentations de la maladie sont étroitement liées aux stratégies d’ajustement à la maladie (e.g. l’adhérence), l’insight, la symptomatologie anxio-dépressive et les représentations des traitements. Au vu de ces résultats, nous avons proposé un CSM appliqué aux troubles bipolaires et des prises en charge qui prennent en compte ces processus. Enfin, nos résultats suggèrent que les représentations des troubles bipolaires sont issues du savoir socio-culturel. Ainsi, les interventions visant à modifier les représentations des troubles bipolaires devraient également impliquées la société.Individuals with bipolar disorder have significant adjustment problems. To cope with these disorders, taking medication is the first-line strategy, however, it does not always lead to a full recovery. Furthermore, low adherence is common, which leads to negative consequences. It is therefore essential to understand the processes and mechanisms involved in the regulation of a disease. To do this, this thesis mobilizes the Common Sense Model (CSM) and proposes to study the applicability of the CSM (1) in mental disorders; (2) in bipolar disorders and (3) the weight of socio-cultural knowledge in representations of bipolar disorders. Six studies involving different methods and participants were conducted. Overall, the results argue that the processes identified by the CSM allow us to better understand the regulation of bipolar disorders and the effectiveness of psychoeducation. In particular, representations of the disease are closely linked to strategies for adjustment to the disease (e.g. adherence), insight, anxio-depressive symptomatology and representations of treatments. In light of these results, we have proposed a CSM applied to bipolar disorders and treatments that take these processes into account. Finally, our results suggest that representations of bipolar disorders are derived from socio-cultural knowledge. Thus, interventions aimed at modifying representations of bipolar disorders should also involve society

    International audienceHealth beliefs, and especially illness representations, have been widely used to understand clinical out-comes and psychosocial adjustment in people with physical diseases. However, this area of research has been under-explored in the field of mental health, and the few studies that have been conducted have used very differen tmethods. Therefore, the aim of our study was to identify the tools and methods that have been used to evaluate illness representations inpsychiatry. To this end, a mini review has been conducted and 58 articles werere tained. This mini review highlights that the quantitative method is the most used, and that the scales mobilised are often adapted for the study, but not validated. Indeed,multiple modifications and adaptations have been made by the authors (e.g.deletion of subscales, addition of items) ,which lead to questions about the reliability of what is measured In the future, it is essential to have a validated generic tool for mental disorders, which could be based on the Illness perceptions questionnaire for schizophrenia
