Abstract

Information is presented from a psychometric study using a semantic differential to measure the meaning of concepts related to breast reconstruction. One hundred five women participated. All were experiencing breast reconstruction subsequent to mastectomy. The average woman was married, middle-aged, and had 11/2 years of education beyond high school. Results from the semantic differential demonstrated that the women viewed themselves, their bodies, and their femininity positively. They valued themselves, and their self-concepts were closer in meaning to health than to mastectomy, death, or cancer.

摘要

本文呈现了一项心理测量研究的信息，该研究使用语义差异法来测量与乳房重建相关概念的意义。105名女性参与了研究。她们均在乳房切除术后进行乳房重建。参与研究的女性平均已婚、中年，高中以上学历有1.5年。语义差异法的结果表明，这些女性对自己、自己的身体和女性气质持积极看法。她们重视自己，并且她们的自我概念在意义上更接近于健康，而非乳房切除术、死亡或癌症。
