Abstract

In a sample of emerging adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), 22.4% reported clinically significant psychological distress. Distress did not vary as a function of key demographic factors. However, those with clinically significant distress also endorsed poorer physical health functioning in 4 of 5 domains.
