The purpose of this study was to examine the nature of psychologic adjustment in persons who have survived childhood burn injuries. It was hypothesized that survivors who were well-adjusted psychologically would possess specific personality traits that would differentiate them from their poorly adjusted peers. Thirty-two subjects were given a standardized assessment of psychologic adjustment and a standardized personality inventory. The subjects were assigned to either a "poorly adjusted" group or a "well-adjusted" group, on the basis of each subject's score on a standardized measure of adjustment. There were no significant differences between the two groups in variables of gender, age, time since burn, or age at time of burn injury. The results indicate three personality traits that seem to be related to psychologic adjustment after a severe burn injury in pediatric patients.
本研究的目的是探讨童年烧伤幸存者心理调适的本质。研究假设，心理调适良好的幸存者会具备特定的人格特质，这些特质将使他们有别于心理调适不佳的同龄人。32名受试者接受了心理调适的标准化评估和标准化人格量表测试。根据每个受试者在标准化调适测量中的得分，将他们分为“调适不佳”组或“调适良好”组。两组在性别、年龄、烧伤后时间或烧伤时年龄等变量上没有显著差异。结果表明，有三种人格特质似乎与小儿严重烧伤后的心理调适有关。
