The purpose of this study was to assess the reaction to burn trauma, the hospitalisation characteristics and psychosocial adjustment in 174 burn victims who agreed to participate in a structured interview. It was postulated that once patients sustain a burn, the level of loneliness feelings and feelings of shame is a function of the visibility of the scars. Contrary to expectation, the visibility of the burn scars was not a predictor of pathological feelings of shame. By contrast, social introversion was a factor significantly associated with the development of burn related pathological feelings of shame.
本研究的目的是评估174名同意参与结构化访谈的烧伤患者对烧伤创伤的反应、住院特征及心理社会适应情况。研究假设，一旦患者遭受烧伤，孤独感和羞耻感的程度是疤痕可见性的函数。与预期相反，烧伤疤痕的可见性并非病理性羞耻感的预测因素。相比之下，社交内向是与烧伤相关的病理性羞耻感发展显著相关的一个因素。
