This is the first study to assess the impact of gender and partnership on life satisfaction in adolescents and adults with CF, using a model combining subjective importance and satisfaction ratings.
Life satisfaction of 243 CF patients (16-58 years, M=29.6, SD=7.4, 46.9% male) was assessed with the Questions on Life Satisfaction (FLZ(M)). The effects of gender and partnership on life satisfaction were calculated.
Significantly less males than females reported living with a partner (chi(2)=16.5, p<001). Gender only had a significant effect on health-related life satisfaction, with females reporting worse life satisfaction. Partnership had small to large effects on general, health-related and CF-specific life satisfaction (eta(2)=.049-.144). Participants with partners always reported higher life satisfaction than those without partner. However, no significant interaction effect of partnership and gender could be shown.
Having a partner is associated with higher life satisfaction, regardless of the patient's gender and might have beneficial effects on medical outcomes.
这是第一项使用结合主观重要性和满意度评分的模型来评估性别和伴侣关系对青少年及成年囊性纤维化(CF)患者生活满意度影响的研究。
采用生活满意度问卷(FLZ(M))对243例CF患者(年龄16 - 58岁,平均年龄M = 29.6岁,标准差SD = 7.4,男性占46.9%)的生活满意度进行评估。计算性别和伴侣关系对生活满意度的影响。
报告与伴侣同住的男性显著少于女性(卡方值= 16.5,p < 0.001)。性别仅对与健康相关的生活满意度有显著影响,女性报告的生活满意度较低。伴侣关系对总体、与健康相关及CF特异性生活满意度有小到中等程度的影响(偏 eta 平方= 0.049 - 0.144)。有伴侣的参与者报告的生活满意度始终高于没有伴侣的参与者。然而,未显示出伴侣关系和性别之间的显著交互作用。
无论患者性别如何,拥有伴侣都与更高的生活满意度相关,并且可能对医疗结果产生有益影响。
