BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
In our previous studies we explored the social representation of hearing loss and hearing aids. In this study we aimed at exploring if the positive, neutral and negative connotations associated with the social representation of 'hearing loss' and 'hearing aids' for the same categories vary across countries. In addition, we also looked at if there is an association between connotations and demographic variables.
SUBJECTS AND METHODS
A total of 404 individuals from four countries were asked to indicate the words and phrases that comes to mind when they think about 'hearing loss' and 'hearing aids'. They also indicated if the words and phrases they reported had positive, neutral or negative association, which were analyzed and reported in this paper.
RESULTS
There are considerable differences among the countries in terms of positive, neutral and negative associations report for each category in relation to hearing loss and hearing aids. However, there is limited connection between demographic variables and connotations reported in different countries.
CONCLUSIONS
These results suggesting that the social representation about the phenomenon hearing loss and hearing aids are relatively stable within respondents of each country.
背景与目的
在我们之前的研究中，我们探讨了听力损失和助听器的社会表征。在本研究中，我们旨在探究与“听力损失”和“助听器”社会表征相关的积极、中性和消极内涵在不同国家的同一类别中是否存在差异。此外，我们还研究了内涵与人口统计学变量之间是否存在关联。
对象与方法
来自四个国家的404名个体被要求指出当他们想到“听力损失”和“助听器”时脑海中浮现的单词和短语。他们还指出所报告的单词和短语具有积极、中性还是消极关联，本文对这些进行了分析和报告。
结果
各国在听力损失和助听器各类别所报告的积极、中性和消极关联方面存在相当大的差异。然而，不同国家报告的人口统计学变量与内涵之间的联系有限。
结论
这些结果表明，听力损失和助听器现象的社会表现在每个国家的受访者中相对稳定。
