We examined the correlations between quality of life and three adaptation factors--adjusted self-concept, social support, and accessibility-in people with multiple sclerosis (MS).
A convenience sample of 68 participants completed the Leeds Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life scale (LMSQoL) and a questionnaire assessing the three adaptation factors.
We found significant moderate correlations between LMSQoL scores and adjusted self-concept (r = .56, p < .0001) and LMSQoL scores and social support (r = .52, p < .0001); a significant low correlation was found between LMSQoL and accessibility (r = .36, p = .003).
Adjusted self-concept, social support, and accessibility were found to be critical in participants' psychosocial adaptation to the course of MS. Occupational therapy intervention should address these adaptation factors to help clients cope with MS and promote quality of life.
我们研究了生活质量与三个适应因素——调整后的自我概念、社会支持和可及性——在多发性硬化症(MS)患者中的相关性。
一个方便的样本包括 68 名参与者,他们完成了利兹多发性硬化症生活质量量表(LMSQoL)和一个评估三个适应因素的问卷。
我们发现 LMSQoL 评分与调整后的自我概念(r =.56,p <.0001)和社会支持(r =.52,p <.0001)之间存在显著的中度相关性;LMSQoL 与可及性(r =.36,p =.003)之间存在显著的低度相关性。
调整后的自我概念、社会支持和可及性是参与者对 MS 病程的心理社会适应的关键因素。职业治疗干预应该针对这些适应因素,帮助患者应对 MS 并提高生活质量。
