To obtain representative data on incidence and psychological background of tattooing and body piercing.
Prevalence of tattooing and body piercing is derived from a representative survey (N = 2043, age 14-93 years). Data are evaluated with respect to mental health (GHQ), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and sensation-seeking (AISS).
The total prevalence of tattoo and piercing is 8.5 % and 6.8 %, respectively. In the age 14-44 15 % are tattooed and 14 % are pierced. Unemployment and lack of partnership correlate positively with body modifications. Tattooing correlates with the perception of reduced mental health and both, tattooing and body piercing correlate highly with increased "Sensation-Seeking" behaviour.
Gender specific investigations show a differentiated picture background for body modifications.
获取纹身和穿孔的发生率及心理背景的代表性数据。
纹身和穿孔的患病率来自一项代表性调查(N = 2043,年龄14 - 93岁)。数据根据心理健康状况(一般健康问卷,GHQ)、贝克抑郁量表(BDI)和感觉寻求(AISS)进行评估。
纹身和穿孔的总患病率分别为8.5%和6.8%。在14 - 44岁年龄段,15%的人有纹身,14%的人有穿孔。失业和缺乏伴侣关系与身体修饰呈正相关。纹身与心理健康状况下降的认知相关,纹身和穿孔都与“感觉寻求”行为增加高度相关。
针对性别的调查显示了身体修饰的不同背景情况。
