In the inaugural edition of Prosthetics and Orthotics International, Fishman identified the psychological sciences as one of six indispensable areas of skill and knowledge in professional prosthetic-orthotic practice. Given the journal's significant role in reporting and developing pertinent research and practice, this review assesses the profile of psychology in prosthetic and orthotic research, as evidenced by the content of Prosthetics and Orthotics International since its inception. A MEDLINE search of the journal's abstracts over a twenty-five year period was conducted using the search terms: 'psychology', 'psychosocial', 'quality of life', 'developmental' and 'coping'. Results of this search are summarised under the following headings: (a) body image; (b) coping and adjustment; (c) developmental issues; (d) psychosocial well-being; (e) quality of life; and (f) psychological factors leading to amputation. On the basis of this review, the authors conclude by highlighting a number of key areas where the psychological aspects of prosthetics and orthotics warrant further investigation and dissemination.
在《国际假肢与矫形器》的创刊版中，菲什曼将心理科学确定为专业假肢矫形实践中六个不可或缺的技能和知识领域之一。鉴于该期刊在报道和开展相关研究及实践方面的重要作用，本综述评估了心理学在假肢与矫形器研究中的概况，这一点可从《国际假肢与矫形器》自创刊以来的内容中得到证明。使用搜索词“心理学”“心理社会”“生活质量”“发育”和“应对”对该期刊25年期间的摘要进行了MEDLINE检索。检索结果在以下标题下进行了总结：(a)身体意象；(b)应对与适应；(c)发育问题；(d)心理社会福祉；(e)生活质量；以及(f)导致截肢的心理因素。基于本综述，作者通过强调假肢与矫形器的心理方面值得进一步研究和传播的一些关键领域来得出结论。
