One year after the 7 September 1999 earthquake in Athens, Greece, we investigated the psychological consequences among 305 individuals (71 per cent female) residing in the settlements of Ano Liosia Municipality. Adaptability was difficult (63 per cent) due to limited space (50 per cent). Insecurity feelings were predictive of difficult adaptability (chi2= 29.8, p<0.0001) and were common (63 per cent) among married subjects, independent of age (chi2= 5.0, odds ratio (OR): 0.49, 95 per cent confidence interval (CI): 0.26-0.90). Eighty per cent expressed stress feelings, mainly nervousness/tension (60 per cent). Adaptability (chi2= 5.3, OR: 0.5, 95 per cent CI: 0.27-0.9), age (chi2= 6.5, OR: 1.03, 95 per cent CI: 1.01-1.06), and female gender (chi2= 4.7, OR: 0.48, 95 per cent CI: 0.25-0.90) were independent predictors of stress feelings. The majority (55 percent) developed sleep disorders, chiefly insomnia (60 percent). Adaptability problems were the only predictor of sleep disorders (chi2= 6.4, OR: 0.5, 95 per cent CI: 0.33-0.87). Psychiatric medication use increased after the earthquake.
1999年9月7日希腊雅典发生地震一年后,我们对居住在阿诺利奥西亚市定居点的305人(71%为女性)的心理后果进行了调查。由于空间有限(50%),适应困难(63%)。不安全感预示着适应困难(卡方=29.8,p<0.0001),并且在已婚受试者中很常见(63%),与年龄无关(卡方=5.0,优势比(OR):0.49,95%置信区间(CI):0.26 - 0.90)。80%的人表示有压力感,主要是紧张/焦虑(60%)。适应能力(卡方=5.3,OR:0.5,95%CI:0.27 - 0.9)、年龄(卡方=6.5,OR:1.03,95%CI:1.01 - 1.06)和女性性别(卡方=4.7,OR:0.48,95%CI:0.25 - 0.90)是压力感的独立预测因素。大多数人(55%)出现睡眠障碍,主要是失眠(60%)。适应问题是睡眠障碍的唯一预测因素(卡方=6.4,OR:0.5,95%CI:0.33 - 0.87)。地震后精神类药物的使用增加。
