目的:探讨影响成人语后聋患者心理健康的相关因素。方法:随机选取52例重度到极重度语后聋成年患者接受测试,采用自陈测试的评估方法,使用自行编制的基本信息调查表获得本组受试者的社会学数据;使用焦虑自评量表、抑郁自评量表和交流恐惧自陈量表获得本组受试者的心理学数据,探讨影响语后聋成年患者心理健康的相关因素。结果:1心理评估结果显示:语后聋成年患者普遍存在"焦虑、抑郁和交流恐惧"的心理症状,本组受试者中存在焦虑症状者24例(46.15%)、抑郁症状者18例(34.61%)、交流恐惧体验者45例(86.54%)。2影响语后聋成年患者心理健康相关因素的结果显示:性别、病程、伴随症状、教育水平、家庭支持均可对耳聋者的心理健康状态产生影响;其中男性患者(优势比为2.246);伴随耳鸣症状患者(优势比为0.536)、病程较短患者(优势比为1.397,1.530)更易出现心理问题;文化水平较高患者(优势比为0.323)、缺乏家庭支持患者(优势比为1.724)更易出现心理问题。结论:成人语后聋患者的心理健康水平远远低于普遍水平,并受到性别、耳聋持续时间、耳鸣、文化程度、家庭支持等诸多因素的影响。听力障碍对耳聋者身心健康造成的负面影响不容忽视,关心和维护耳聋群体的心理健康,减少或避免心理危机的发生和发展具有一定的现实意义。
