Psychological and psychomotor skills associated with performance in golf were established through ratings provided by 165 men with golf handicaps ranging from 5 to 27. Several components of skilled performance in golf were identified through factor analysis of these ratings, followed by comparisons between lower handicap and higher handicap players. Skilled golfers (those with lower handicaps) reported greater mental preparation, a higher level of concentration when playing golf, fewer negative emotions and cognitions, greater psychomotor automaticity, and more commitment to golf. Three self-report assessment scales (measures of psychological skills and tactics, psychomotor skills, and golf involvement) were developed from the data. Contexts in which these scales can be used are discussed.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare objective speech recognition and subjective hearing handicap outcomes as a function of a degree of hearing loss. Methods: 120 elderly listeners participated, ranging in age from 60-83 years. Listeners’ degrees of hearing loss were derived corresponding to a newly proposed World Health Organization hearing impairment grading system. As objective outcomes, word and sentence recognition scores (WRS, SRS) in quiet were measured at an individually determined most comfortable level. The SRS in noise were obtained at 0 dB signal-to-noise ratio. The Korean Evaluation Scale for Hearing Handicap questionnaire for non-hearing aid users was used to evaluate the effects of hearing status on social and psychological aspects. Results: Within the same grading of hearing impairment, listeners tended to show a large individual variability in speech-in-noise recognition and subjective hearing handicaps. Listeners with even mild impairment had more reductions in SRS in noise and more handicaps in an interpersonal relationship compared to normal-hearing listeners. Among the listeners with no impairment or mild hearing impairment, listeners who had poorer sentence-in-noise scores actually showed greater hearing handicaps. The sentence-in-noise scores plus WRS explained the subjective hearing handicap by about 40%. Conclusion: The elderly with normal hearing or mild hearing loss can have reduced communication abilities in background noise, resulting in a negative effect on their social and psychological aspects. It is recommended to conduct the sentence-in-noise intelligibility test and the subjective hearing handicap survey as a standard audiometric measures to confirm the functional communication problems for the elderly.

This study aimed to define the concept of chronic health condition in adults as presented in literature. An evolutionary perspective of concept analysis was used, as presented by Rodgers, emphasizing the essential attributes, antecedents, consequences and related concepts. The adult's chronic health condition was presented by the characteristics of permanence, irreversibility, residual handicap, incurable and degenerative as essential attributes. The antecedents were: genetic heritage, old age, birth condition, smoking and foods with saturated fat; and, for the consequences: physical, social and psychological changes, handicaps and inabilities, life style changes, needs to adapt and cope. Related concepts were: not transmissible diseases, functional deficiency, limitations, illness or impairment for more than three months. Chronic health condition is a complex construction of concepts defined as a modifying force of the life process over time.

A prospective, open-label clinical trial was conducted for two aims: first, to evaluate the role of fluvoxamine, one of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, in the treatment of dizziness for the first time and to investigate its effective mechanisms. Second, to test the hypothesis that dizziness in patients without abnormal neuro-otologic findings would be induced by psychiatric disorders rather than by unnoticed neuro-otologic diseases. Nineteen patients with neuro-otologic diseases (Group I) and 22 patients in whom standard vestibular tests revealed no abnormal findings (Group II) were treated by fluvoxamine (200 mg/day) for eight weeks. Subjective handicaps due to dizziness using a questionnaire, anxiety and depressive symptoms measured with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and stress hormones (vasopressin and cortisol) were examined before and 8 weeks after treatment. Overall, fluvoxamine decreased subjective handicaps of both Groups I and II. Fluvoxamine decreased HADS of only patients whose subjective handicaps were reduced (=responders) in both groups, suggesting that fluvoxamine was effective for dizziness via psychiatric action rather than a recovery of vestibular function through serotonergic activation. In non-responders of Group II, pre-treatment HADS was higher than in Group I non-responders and it was not decreased by the treatment, suggesting that dizziness of Group II non-responders was due to severe psychiatric disorders rather than unnoticed neuro-otologic diseases. Anxiety and depression components of HADS showed a good correlation at both pre- and post-treatment periods. No post-therapeutic decrease was observed in either vasopressin or cortisol even in responders, suggesting that dizziness was not the sole cause of stress in chronic dizziness patients. In conclusion, patients with or without physical neuro-otologic deficits who report chronic dizziness accompanied by anxiety and depression (as measured by HADS) showed improvements across a full range of subjective handicaps and psychological distress, while patients with physical neuro-otologic defects and minimal anxiety or depression did not benefit. The main causes of dizziness in patients without physical neuro-otologic findings were psychiatric disorders.

Individual differences in cognitive preferences were examined in analyzing the effects of imagery and self-talk training on the psychological skills and performance levels of amateur golfers. Thirty-two men and women participated in a series of four counterbalanced training workshops and activities conducted over 2 months at two golf clubs. A repeated measures MANOVA revealed significant improvement on five psychological and psychomotor skills measured by the Golf Performance Survey: negative emotions and cognitions, mental preparation, automaticity, putting skill, and seeking improvement. Participants’ responses to the Sport Imagery Questionnaire and ratings of their imagery and self-talk techniques increased significantly after training. Players also lowered their handicaps and performed significantly better on a Golf Skills Test after training. Imagery and self-talk training benefits were not linked to participants’ cognitive preferences. The cognitive flexibility displayed by these golfers signals the need for more research on processing preferences and has implications for practitioners working with athletes.

Smart Golf is a comprehensive approach to improving and scoring the mental game in golf. The five components are preparation, positive focusing (positive self-monitoring), plan, apply, and react. The acronym PAR summarizes the latter three components. A simple scoring system encourages golfers to self-monitor their use of the Smart Golf approach. In this preliminary evaluation of the efficacy of the approach, five experienced golfers (M years of playing = 17.8) participated in a 4-week seminar. Process measures indicated the extent to which participants used the approach. Outcome measures included golf scores at pre- and postintervention and at a 3-month follow-up. Psychological skills were also assessed at pre- and postintervention. Process analyses revealed that participants used the approach consistently during the seminar and follow-up period. All participants improved two critical psychological skills (emotional control and positive self-talk) as well as their average scores (at postintervention) and handicaps (at follow-up).

Background: Survivors of disfiguring burn injury often become social handicaps. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to understand their perception of body image, their coping skills, their appraisals about social support and self-monitoring behaviour in social situations and explore the factors that can promote better psychological adjustment.Methods: Using a single group cohort design, a sample of 18 individuals with burn injury, were recruited through purposive sampling. Personal data sheet, self-monitoring scale (SMS) and satisfaction with appearance scale (SWAP) were administered when the patients were admitted post-injury. Social support appraisal scale (SSA), coping with burns questionnaire along with SMS and SWAP were administered at one-month post-discharge.Results: The findings indicated that gender and education played a significant role in body image, coping, social support appraisal and self-monitoring behaviours. Further, higher scores on coping strategies were associated with better body satisfaction.Conclusions: The findings indicate the need to look into the variables of coping, body image, social support, self-monitoring behaviours of burns patients and the need to develop interventions for improving their quality of life. A mixed-method study design for better understanding of the psychosocial factors impacting adjustment post-burn injury would be beneficial. Although a larger cohort needs to be studied for understanding the impact of these factors, one may already notice definite indicators that are risk factors that may lead to poorer psycho-social wellbeing of burn victims and potential areas where interventions may be effective.

RIASSUNTOScopo - Descrivere Pimplementazione epidemiologica nella Regione Abruzzo di un servizio di prevenzione degli handicap psiconeurosensoriali dell'eta evolutiva; presentare i dati di prevalenza delle patologie osservate e i modelli di regressione esplicativi deU'occorrenza, discutere i dati di accesso ai servizi in termini di risposta alle necessità sociosanitarie. Setting e disegno - Sono stati utilizzati i dati forniti da un sistema informativo regionale, costituito da fonti informative primarie operanti presso le aziende USL (Servizio di Medicina scolastica, Medicina di base, Pediatria di base, Consultori familiari, Servizio di Riabilitazione) e da strutture specializzate di individuazione diagnostica (Équipe Multidisciplinari, Divisione Clinicizzata di Neuropsichiatna Infantile, Servizi Territoriali di NPI). Il modello di gestione dei dati è il registro epidemiologico di popolazione. La popolazione target e la popolazione abruzzese di eta inferiore ai 25 anni. Principali misure utilizzate - Vengono utilizzate in questo studio misure epidemiologiche di prevalenza, standardizzate per età, assumendo come standard la popolazione regionale (0-24 anni). La definizione delle patologie è stata effettuata sulla base delle nosografie standard 1CD-9 e ICD-10; la definizione di handicap sulla base della classificazione OMS (1981). Sono state esaminate le associazioni tra le variabili esplicative di tipo sociodemografico e anamnestico e le diverse tipologie di esito clinico attraverso modelli di regressione logistica. Risultati - Le stime di prevalenza per le principali patologie neuropsichiatriche infantili e per le patologie organiche e/o congenite generatrici di handicap nella popolazione dell'Abruzzo sono paragonabili a quelli riscontrati in letteratura in setting analoghi, ad eccezione dei disturbi ipercinetici che sembrerebbero indicare per I'Abruzzo un'alta occorrenza in entrambi i sessi. La riabilitazione risulta essere la necessita sanitaria maggiormente richiesta per tutti gli assi diagnostici; neH'ambito delle necessita sociali risulta relativamente poco rilevante il ricorso all'assistenza scolastica e, soprattutto, domiciliare. L'analisi di regressione logistica indica lo stato socioeconomico e la presenza di handicap in famiglia come fattori associati, rispettivamente, in modo negativo all'occorrenza di disturbi ipercinetici, e in modo positivo alFoccorrenza di ritardo mentale. Inoltre, lo stato di convivenza in famiglia naturale e associato negativamente aU'occorrenza di disturbi evolutivi. Conclusioni - Lo studio riporta i risultati preliminari dell'attivita di un registro specializzato per l'handicap psiconeurosensoriale in eta evolutiva. Tra le prime indicazioni operative emerge con chiarezza l'utilita della standardizzazione delle procedure diagnosu'che, della definizione di linee guida gestionali comuni nelle diverse aree territoriali, e, comunque, l'importanza della conoscenza epidemiologica del fenomeno handicap per una corretta impostazione di strategie di prevenzione e programmazione.

Medicine places its ultimate purpose at prolonging people’s healthy lives. Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) has emerged as one of the key measures of medical practice. HRQoL, the most important patient-reported outcome, should include not only functional status and disability as result of a disease but also patient’s handicaps and restriction of social participation as result of the disease. Neuromuscular disorders as a whole comprise of wide constellation of various symptoms and signs, which in turn, affect negative influence on patients’ functional status, psychological well-being, and tend to restrict patients’ financial and social achievement. The most influential HRQoL measures, either generic or neuromuscular disease-specific, will be presented and discussed. Medical Outcomes Study Short Form 36-Item, EuroQoL-5 Dimensions, Individualized Neuromuscular QoL Questionnaire, Norfolk Quality of Life Questionnaire-Diabetic Neuropathyare among the lists.

People are looking for therapeutic ways to deal with the damaging rhythms and handicaps of modern life styles which threaten the physical, social and psychological endurance of human-beings. Reconsideration of "old" philosophies, ancient wisdom and spiritual/mystical paths in a contemporary context was among the solutions that were launched to overwhelm the modern sense of alienation in the second half of 20th Century and this tendency is still going on nowadays no comma at the first decade of 21st Century. Sufism has been one of the traditions from which modern individuals expected answers to their ontological dilemmas produced in daily life by the society, social relations, media and finally by themselves. The purpose of this paper is to discuss sociologically whether Sufism, the mystical, peaceful and tolerant way of Islam could be an answer to the social problems of modern societies. What is the social alternative of Sufi traditions regarding the contemporary issues such as: social and technological alienation, sustainable development and environmental/ecological crisis? This paper is an attempt to emphasize the possibilities of Sufism beyond spirituality, with a discussion based on the sociological conception of the subject.

This article is based on a larger interpretative phenomenological study exploring the lived experience of women who have faced unresolved infertility, and which aimed to understand and interpret the meaning of infertility, its emotional implications, and the coping mechanisms of sufferers. The five participants were women who faced primary infertility, whilst being with a partner, having undergone treatment, and who had not encountered (at least initially) other handicaps critical to their infertility. Data was collected via semi-structured interviews and the narratives were analysed using Smith’s Interpretative Phenomenological Approach (IPA). The four superordinate themes identified were: (1) meaning of motherhood; (2) being in treatment; (3) consciously facing infertility; and (4) moving on. Due to word count limitations, this article only focuses on: “meaning of motherhood” and “consciously facing infertility”, with the intention to publish a different article to address the remaining two themes. The combination of themes was determined by considering how to wholesomely present the most essential aspects of the narrative as related to us by the participants. The themes included in this article explore how archetypical beliefs about motherhood and fertility help define cultural, societal, and personal expectations, and in turn affect the magnitude and intensity of infertility’s psychological impact. The findings emphasise the complexity of the phenomenon and how it can impinge on all aspects of life. Sufferers were found to experience complex loss, relating to their identity and self-esteem, life purpose, but also relationships and social integration. These profound psychological effects can be particularly long lasting due to the lifelong nature of the phenomenon but also the shame and secrecy surrounding it.

AbstractMany studies of cognitive rehabilitation use neuropsychological tests to plan and evaluate treatment. This paper suggests that this is not a good rehabilitation procedure. The main purposes of rehabilitation are to achieve the maximum physical, psychological, social and vocational wellbeing of each individual and to enable people to return to their own, most appropriate environment. We do not engage in rehabilitation in order to help people achieve better scores on tests. This might be acceptable if there were a direct relationship between test scores and real life problems but there is not such a relationship. Although tests are useful in providing a picture of strengths and weaknesses, they are extremely limited in identifying everyday disabilities and handicaps. People can lead improved lives by compensating for or by-passing some of their cognitive problems yet remain unchanged on test scores. Conversely, they can improve on test scores yet remain severely handicapped in everyday life. One approach that is gaining ground in rehabilitation is goal planning. This allows patients/clients, their relatives and rehabilitation staff to negotiate appropriate and meaningful goals, determine how these should be achieved and measure success, or failure in real life situations. Goal planning both reduces the artificial distinction between rehabilitation practice and outcome measures, and allows the integration of theory and practice. The processes and procedures involved in goal planning are described and followed by an evaluative discussion.

This paper describes functional outcome of a population of lower limb amputees five months after amputation compared with their pre-operative functional abilities and studies the relationship between potential determinants and functional outcome. Twenty out of 26 patients who underwent a lower limb amputation between December 1993 and August 1994 in a general hospital in Amsterdam were included in the study. Their functional abilities before amputation were retrospectively assessed using an ICIDH (International Classification of Impairments, Disabilities and Handicaps)-based questionnaire. Functional outcome was assessed after amputation of the lower limb using ICIDH-based and SIP (Sickness Impact Profile)-questionnaires. The mean SIP scores were high (referring to a low functional outcome). Disabilities were spread over the five disability fields of the ICIDH. The functional outcome of the diabetic versus the non-diabetic group was lower on the physical, activities of daily living (ADL), psychological and communicative categories of the ICIDH. In most patients, functional outcome decreased. The diabetic patients compared to the non-diabetics showed more diversity in functional outcome, compared with their preoperative functional abilities. Increasing age is significantly associated with a low functional outcome on the SIP scores. Diabetes is age-related for this sample. Co-morbidity and motivation are strongly age-related for this sample. It was concluded that lower-limb amputees appear quite disabled in all disability categories of the ICIDH and as assessed by the SIP scores. In most patients, functional abilities decrease after lower limb amputation. Age seems to be a significant factor related to functional outcome.

At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in spring 2020, school and university learning were abruptly switched to distance learning, coming along with psychological strains and various learning lags on the part of the students. These problems come to a head when focusing on university teacher students, since an expectable competence lag on their part, similarly arising from pandemic-caused distance learning in university teacher training, could affect their future teaching in schools, possibly then disadvantaging school students a second time. To determine changes of teacher students’ self-concept of professional knowledge, we used data of a repeated cross-sectional survey carried out in a period from 2018 to 2021, including several comparable cohorts of overall N = 395 teacher students. This design allowed for splitting the participants in two groups relating to times before and after switching to distance learning. Our results show that the switch to distance learning goes hand in hand with lower scores on almost every dimension of teacher students’ self-concept of professional knowledge, although, in parallel, their scores on variables such as openness to experiences, agreeableness, and conscientiousness increased significantly, indicating a certain degree of compliance with the new situation. Beyond that, we report on an evaluative survey among N = 84 teacher students carried out in July 2020, offering further insights into their situation during the first semester of distance learning. Its results primarily show which specific aspects of distance learning the students consider in need of improvement. On the other hand, it becomes clear that they experienced handicaps in various areas, accompanied by a significant decrease of their core self-evaluations when comparing them to a reference sample. Practical implications and recommendations that can be derived from these results are discussed.

Limited reading and writing abilities in children with dyslexia make it difficult for them to succeed academically when given a typical learning method. In addition to difficulties in the academic field, children with dyslexia also experience difficulties in their psychosocial functioning. Emotional problems become "secondary handicaps" which often occur in children with dyslexia and will cause psychological disorders if not treated early. Children who show indications of dyslexia need to be given appropriate emotional guidance to obtain the emotional competence needed to enable them to express emotions in a healthy manner. Interventions in the form of expressive art therapy were given to six participants; children aged 8 to 9 years who were diagnosed with dyslexia. Each participant has received six art therapy sessions and completed the Emotion Expression Scale for Children (EESC) measuring instrument as the pretest and posttest. The purpose of this study is to explore factors that influenced the effectiveness of expressive art therapy results on emotional expression in children with dyslexia. This paper will focus on analyzing the interview results from six participants and their main caregiver. Data collection was carried out qualitatively through individual interviews. The results of the qualitative thematic analysis showed that increasing EESC scores on participants can be explained by two main factors. First, emotion coaching received from the environment. Second, the social judgement perceived by the participants. Differences in comorbidities, cultures, and conditions of participants during interventions might influence the results of this study. Keterbatasan kemampuan membaca dan menulis pada anak dengan disleksia membuat mereka sulit untuk berhasil secara akademis ketika diberikan metode belajar yang tipikal. Selain kesulitan di bidang akademik, anak-anak dengan disleksia juga mengalami kesulitan dalam fungsi psikososial mereka. Permasalahan emosional menjadi “secondary handicap” yang seringkali muncul pada anak dengan disleksia dan akan menyebabkan gangguan psikologis jika tidak ditangani sejak dini. Anak disleksia perlu diberikan bimbingan emosional yang tepat untuk memperoleh kompetensi emosional yang diperlukan agar mereka mampu mengekspresikan emosi dengan cara yang sehat. Dalam riset ini, intervensi berupa terapi seni ekspresif telah diberikan terhadap enam partisipan, yaitu anak berusia 8 hingga 9 tahun yang terdiagnosis disleksia. Setiap partisipan telah melakukan enam sesi terapi seni dan menyelesaikan alat ukur Emotion Expression Scale for Children (EESC) sebagai pretest, juga posttest. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengeksplorasi faktor yang memengaruhi efektivitas terapi seni ekspresif terhadap ekspresi emosi pada anak dengan disleksia. Penelitian ini akan berfokus menganalisis hasil wawancara dengan keenam partisipan dan pengasuh utama mereka. Pengambilan data dilakukan secara kualitatif melalui metode wawancara individual. Hasil analisis tematik kualitatif menunjukkan bahwa peningkatan skor EESC pada partisipan dapat dipengaruhi oleh dua faktor utama. Pertama, pengajaran emosi yang diterima dari lingkungan. Kedua, penilaian lingkungan sosial yang dipersepsikan oleh partisipan. Perbedaan dalam komorbiditas, budaya, dan kondisi partisipan selama intervensi juga dapat menjadi faktor yang memengaruhi hasil penelitian ini.

This study retrospectively assessed the prevalence of tinnitus in cochlear implant patients and the changes after implantation in 212 patients implanted between 2000 and 2009. Patients were included at least 6 months after implantation and received 2 sets of questionnaires, one about the situation before implantation and one about the situation after implantation. Mostly standardized questionnaires assessed tinnitus handicap (Tinnitus Handicap Inventory, THI, and Tinnitus Handicap Questionnaire, THQ), tinnitus characteristics, hearing loss (Abbreviated Profile of Hearing Aid Benefit) and anxiety/depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale). Of the approached patients, 117 completed the full sets of questionnaires and 35 completed a short version. Preoperative tinnitus was reported by 51.3% of these patients, of which 55.6% reported a reduction or cessation of their tinnitus after implantation. However, 8.2% of the patients with tinnitus reported a postoperative deterioration of their tinnitus. In addition, among the patients without preoperative tinnitus, 19.6% reported the start of tinnitus after implantation. The self-reported change of tinnitus correlated with the pre- and postoperative scores on the THI and THQ. The THQ showed slightly more changes in scores after cochlear implantation compared to the THI. Overall hearing handicap and feelings of anxiety and depression decreased after implantation. In conclusion, tinnitus is reduced after cochlear implantation in an important part of the patients, but in a small part implantation has a negative effect on tinnitus. When tinnitus starts after implantation, the tinnitus handicap is mild.

INTRODUCTION Currently available evidence reveals comparatively few studies of psychological effects of hearing impairments, in spite of the fact that clinicians have for a long time been aware of a connection between the acquired hearing impairment and mental disorders. They are focused on the investigation of dysfunction in general. Thus, three domains of the auditory imbalance may be distinguished: disorder, disability and handicap. 'Handicap', according to the definition of the World Health Organization, is a hindrance in an individual that results from an impairment or disability and represents psychological response of the individual to the impairment. OBJECTIVE Validation of acquired hearing impairment as a risk factor of psychical disorders as well as an analysis of relation of some demographic factors (sex, age, education) and audiological factors (degree and duration of the impairment) with the frequency of hearing handicap. METHOD MMPI-201 has been applied in 60 subjects affected with otosclerosis, potential candidates for stapedectomy, before and after the surgery. RESULTS Individuals with acquired hearing impairment manifest more frequent disorders of psychical functioning in comparison with general population, while demographic and audiometric parameters did not correlate with acquired hearing handicap. CONCLUSION It may be assumed that the very recognition of demographic and audio-logical factors can not help much in the understanding of the psychological stress associated with hearing impairment.

This paper identifies the opportunities for development and take-off points by taking into account the operation, processes and basic principles of the global economy. The current economic situation of the region mentioned will be detailed using macroeconomic indicators such as GDP, foreign direct investment, the HDI index and infrastructural networks. It becomes evident that the focus of this paper is a semi-periphery region of a semi-periphery country, which, in addition to the stagnation of the current situation, is inching towards the periphery. It is essential to explore the main routes through which the future development of the region might be reoriented towards a modern and competitive economy in the current global environment. It is therefore not specific solutions, but development paths that this paper outlines. The obvious handicaps are, however, coupled with unique opportunities, such as natural resources, biodiversity, traditions and a strategic geographic location. The free flow of labour, goods and capital has become a cross-border and intertwined reality, and significantly influence the economies of all countries and regions. The migration of capital and the division of labour it results in assign roles to states and global regions. In this capacity, they connect to networks whose micro-interactions outline the entirety of the global economic landscape. The Szeklerland is not an administratively recognised region; it is surrounded by psychological borders, and represents a cultural, ethnic, historical entity based on tradition. Although the push for its recognition is still ongoing, as evidenced by the efforts of representative bodies such as the Minority SafePack initiative for the protection of minorities, global processes and laws still apply to it, influencing both its present and expected future path. Despite the unfavourable historical background that has left its mark on its economic state to a significant extent, thus also shaping the ways in which it attained its current level of development, the region examined possesses significant potential, and with the appropriate measures, the possible future evolution of its economy may give cause for optimism. This, however, may only be accomplished if there is an appropriate infrastructural network underpinning the region, with the aim of ensuring the rapid movement of products, services, high volumes of data, information, the workforce and money. Digitisation plays an important part in this process, yet at the same time, technology transfer and innovation are both indispensable for increasing efficiency.

Areas of need exist where people with a mental handicap experience problems greater than, or differing from, the rest of the population. For example, there is a greater than average incidence of psychiatric disorder in mentally handicapped adults (Heaton-Ward, 1977) and children (Rutter et al, 1970; Gath & Gumley, 1986). Also, their families experience greater psychological distress and require support in their own right (Dupont, 1986; Shulman, 1988).

The purpose of this study was to explore the contributions of audiologic and nonaudiologic factors, including medical, social, economic, and psychological, towards understanding hearing handicap in black elderly. One hundred hearing-impaired black elderly subjects from Harlem Hospital were given audiologic evaluations, including speech recognition tests under varied conditions. Audiologic factors were significantly related to hearing handicap, measured by the Hearing Handicap Scale (HHS) and the Hearing Handicap Inventory for the Elderly (HHIE), with stronger correlations for speech recognition measured at 50 dB HL in a sound field than at 40 dB SL under earphones. Once hearing loss was taken into consideration, nonaudiologic factors (measured on the Multidimensional Functional Assessment Questionnaire), particularly the dependability dimension of social support and the lethargy and paranoid dimensions of mental health, emerged as contributing predictor variables for HHS and HHIE scores. These findings suggest that a multidimensional approach is key to understanding and remediating hearing handicap in black elderly.

Background: While several studies have investigated the presence and annoyance of tinnitus in cochlear implant (CI) recipients, few studies have probed the handicap experienced in association with tinnitus in this population. Purpose: The aim of this study was to use validated self-report measures in a consecutive sample of CI patients who reported tinnitus in order to determine the extent of tinnitus handicap. Research Design: In a retrospective design, a total of 151 patients (80% response rate) responded to a postal questionnaire, and of these, 111 (74%) reported that they currently experienced tinnitus and were asked to complete the full questionnaire. Sampling was performed at a point of a mean 2.9 years postsurgery (SD = 1.8 years). Three established self-report questionnaires were included measuring tinnitus handicap (Tinnitus Handicap Inventory [THI]), hearing problems (Gothenburg Profile), and finally, a measure of anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale). We analyzed the data by means of Pearson product moment correlations, t-tests, ANOVAs, and chi-square. Results: Data from the validated questionnaires showed relatively low levels of tinnitus distress, moderate levels of hearing problems, and low scores on the anxiety and depression scales. Using the criteria proposed for the THI (which was completed by 107 patients), 35% (N = 38) had a score indicating “no handicap,” 30% (N = 32) “mild handicap” 18% (N = 19) “moderate handicap”, and 17% (N = 18) “severe handicap.” Thus 37 individuals from the total series of 151 reported moderate to severe tinnitus handicap (24.5%). Tinnitus distress was associated with increased hearing problems, anxiety, and depression. Conclusion: Tinnitus can be a significant problem following CI, but that the experienced distress is often moderate. However, a quarter of CI recipients do demonstrate moderate/severe tinnitus handicap, and thus are candidates for tinnitus specific therapy. The level of tinnitus handicap is associated with hearing problems and psychological distress.

Abstract Background More than 10% of people aged 50 years and older report dizziness. Despite available treatments, dizziness remains unresolved for many people due in part to sub-optimal assessment. Aims to identify factors associated with dizziness handicap in middle-aged and older people to identify targets for intervention to address this debilitating problem. Methods This secondary analysis of baseline and prospective data from a randomised-controlled trial involved 305 individuals aged 50-92 years reporting significant dizziness in the past year. Participants were classified as having either mild or no dizziness handicap (score < 31) or moderate / severe dizziness handicap (score: 31-100) based on the dizziness handicap inventory (DHI). Participants completed health questionnaires and underwent assessments of psychological well-being, lying and standing blood pressure, vestibular function, strength, vision, proprioception, processing speed, balance, stepping and gait. Participants also reported dizziness episodes in monthly diaries for 6 months following baseline assessment. Participants reported dizziness episodes in monthly diaries for six months following baseline assessment. Results DHI scores ranged from 0-86 with 95 participants (31%) reporting moderate/severe dizziness handicap. Binary logisitic regression identified a postive Dix-Hallpike test for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, cardiovascular medicationuse, high postural sway when standing on the floor with eyes closed and severe anxiety, as significant and independent predictors of moderate.severe dizziness handicap. Poor balance (high sway) also significantly identified participants who reported frequent (> or = weekly, n=134) dizziness episodes. Conclusion Assessment of cardiovascular medication use, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, anxiety and postural sway identify middle aged and older people with significant dizziness handicap. A multifactorial assessment including these facotrs may assist in tailoring evidence-based therapies to alleviate dizziness handicap in this group.

Fibromyalgia (FM) is a poorly understood, central pain processing disorder characterized by a broad range of symptoms, such as chronic pain, sleep disruption, chronic fatigue, and psychosomatic symptoms. In addition, recent studies have shown that FM patients also experience dizziness. We aimed to establish a prevalence rate of vestibular symptoms in a population of FM patients through a battery of questionnaires investigating socio-demographic, clinical and psychological characteristics, combined with the Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) and the Situational Vertigo Questionnaire (SVQ). A total of 277 respondents, officially diagnosed with FM, completed the full study, while 80 controls were also included for DHI and SVQ questionnaires. We found that FM participants were significantly affected by vestibular symptoms, which correlated with FM-associated pain and non-pain symptoms. The dizziness reported by FM participants showed peculiar features suggesting an FM-intrinsic mechanism of vestibular dysfunction, possibly linked to migraine and dysautonomia conditions. Correlations between dizziness and depressive mood (or neuroticism), revealed an impact of dizziness on psychological status, leading to depressive reactions and interpersonal difficulties, and possibly involving a noxious, self-sustained stress condition. In conclusion, data showed a manifesting dizziness condition in FM patients that warrants careful clinical attention due to its possible inherent role in the syndrome.

Objectives. The purpose of the article is to present to specialists in the field of psychology a model of a personality disabled person’s personality, which has signs of ‘‘a handicap complex’’, that in the future, will allow a differentiated approach to the issue of prevention and correction of occurrence of this complex. Methods. The study design is a meta-analysis of publications with levels evidence and a level recommendation. An electronic search was conducted in the PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library, CrossRef, AO Spine, Eurospine, ResearchGate, eLIBRARY, and MEDLINE databases, and in references of key articles. Results.The number of disabled people in Ukraine is growing rapidly, which is becoming a significant social political problem of our time. The general fundamental problem to be solved by the vector of scientific research is to develop basic psychological foundations for the full and comprehensive rehabilitation of disabled people who, as a result of desocialization tendencies, acquire the status of social outsiders and require social and psychological assistance.The article is devoted to the psychological analysis of peculiarities of handicap complex manifestation in humans with disabilities due to Spinal Cord Injury (SCI). The paper clarifies the concept of handicap as a social phenomenon that is updated by the negative perceptions of disabled people and the category of «handicap complex» is revealed. Handicap is a symptom complex that is inherent in the disabled and manifests itself in a feeling of inferiority. It is accompanied by the presence of negative emotional states, also is changes in the structure of the “self-concept” of the individual, which arose as a result of feelings due to a disability. Analysis of the factors that make a disabled person feel inferior, strive for isolation and show signs of maladjustment indicate that the handicap phenomenon is acquiring a separate scientific status, primarily is due to a destructive effect on the entire system of social and psychological life of people. It is the «handicap» presence that hinders the progress of a social adaptation, a personal development in a society of disabled people to the greatest extent and destroys their mental health. It should be noted that the health problems of people with special needs in our country are specific due to the weak social protection of people in this category. Conclusion. This poses a number of problems for Ukrainian psychologists, the result of which solving will be to improve the quality-of-life disabled people, to develop psychological and pedagogical programs for their development. The purpose of the article is to present to specialists in the field of psychology a model of a personality disabled person’s personality, which has signs of ‘‘a handicap complex’’.Key words: handicap, disabled, spinal cord injury, disability. Мета. Представити фахівцям у галузі психології модель особистості неповносправного, який внаслідок ушкодження хребта та спинного мозку має ознаки «комплексу гандикапу», що надалі дозволить комплексно підійти до питання попередження та корекції виникнення цього комп-лексу. Методи. Систематичній аналізуючий огляд літературних джерел із запропонованої теми. Використовувався метааналіз публікацій з рівнем доказовості та рівнем рекомендацій. Проведено електронний пошук по базах даних PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library, CrossRef, AO Spine, Eurospine, ResearchGate, eLIBRARY, MEDLINE та по бібліографії ключових статей. Результати. Кількість інвалідів в Україні стрімко зростає, що стає вагомою соціально-політичною проблемою сьогодення. Загальна фундаментальна проблема, на вирішення якої спрямовано вектор наукового пошуку, зумовлена нагальною потребою вироблення базових психологічних засад повноцінної і всебічної реабілітації неповносправних, які внаслідок десоціалізаційних тенденцій потре-бують соціально-психологічної допомоги.У результаті дослідження з’ясовано, що практично не зустрічається праць, присвячених питанню психології гандикапізму. У науковій традиції ця тема залишається не розробленою ні в теоретичній, ні в практичній, прикладній площині. На підставі дослідження зроблено психологічний аналіз особ-ливостей прояву комплексу гандикапу у людей з обмеженими фізичними можливостями внаслідок спинальної травми. Роз’яснено поняття «гандикапізм» як соціальне явище, яке актуалізується негативним уявленням щодо неповносправних та розкрито поняття категоріі «комплекс гандикапу». «Ганди-кап» – це симптомокомплекс, який властивий інвалідизованим і проявляється у відчутті неповноцінності. Це супроводжується наявністю негативних емоційних станів, а також змінами у структурі «Я-концепції» особистості, які виникли внаслідок почуттів через наявність неповносправності. Аналіз факторів, що змушують неповносправного почуватись неповноцінним, прагнути до ізоляції та виявляти ознаки дезадаптації, свідчить про те, що явище гандикапізму набуває окремого наукового статусу, в першу чергу через руйнівний вплив на всю систему соціального та психологічного життя людей. Саме наявність «гандикапу» найбільшою мірою заважає прогресу в соціальній адаптації, розвитку особистості в суспільстві інвалідів та руйнує їхнє психічне здоров’я. Висновки. Слід зазначити, що проблеми зі здоров’ям людей з особливими потребами в нашій країні специфічні через слабкий соціальний захист людей цієї категорії. Це висуває перед вітчизняними психологами низку проблем, результат розв’я-зання яких полягатиме у поліпшенні умов життя інвалідів, розробці психолого-педагогічних програм їхнього розвитку.Ключові слова: гандикапізм, инвалідизовані, спиномозкова травма, неповносправність.

Factors such as anxiety, depression, somatic awareness, autonomic symptoms, and differences in coping strategies are known to affect dizziness handicap. We studied these factors in 63 consecutive "dizzy" patients. This sample was subgrouped into normals and patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, compensated and uncompensated unilateral peripheral vestibular system impairment, or abnormal vestibular evoked myogenic potential as a single significant diagnostic finding. Results showed that (1) anxiety and depression occur with greater frequency in dizzy patients than in the normal population; (2) the magnitude of anxiety, depression, somatization, and autonomic symptoms does not differ significantly in subgroups of patients; (3) women tended to report greater handicap and somatic/autonomic symptoms; and (4) Dizziness Handicap Inventory total scores were correlated with patients' complaints of somatic/autonomic symptoms, anxiety, depression, and coping strategies. These findings suggest that self-reported measures represent unique pieces of information important for the management of dizzy patients. Factores tales como la ansiedad, la depresión, la conciencia somática, los síntomas autonómicos y las diferencias en las estrategias de afrontamiento, se sabe que afectan el impedimento por mareo. Estudiamos estos factores en 63 pacientes “mareados” consecutivos. Esta muestra fue sub-agrupada en pacientes normales, con vértigo posicional paroxístico benigno, con trastornos periféricos unilaterales, compensados y descompensados, del sistema vestibular, o con potenciales miogénicos vestibulares evocados anormales, como único hallazgo diagnóstico significativo. Los resultados mostraron que (1) la ansiedad y la depresión ocurrían con mayor frecuencia en pacientes mareados que en la población normal; (2) la magnitud de la ansiedad, la depresión, la somatización y los síntomas autonómicos no difería significativamente entre los sub-grupos de pacientes; (3) las mujeres tendieron a reportar un impedimento mayor y mayores síntomas somáticos/autonómicos; y (4) los puntajes totales del Inventario de Impedimento por Mareo correlacionaron con los quejas de los pacientes de síntomas somáticos/autonómicos, ansiedad, depresión, y estrategias de afrontamiento. Estos hallazgos sugieren que las mediciones auto-reportadas representan piezas singulares de información importante para el manejo de los pacientes mareados.

SummaryThis paper explores the inter-relationships between impairment and disability in a sample of 119 teenagers in relation to their psychological adjustment and quality of social life. Poor psychological adjustment and extreme social isolation are associated not so much with individual functional limitations as with particular configurations of impairments and disabilities. It seems that social handicap is not a direct consequence of any impairment or disability but arises generally from severe functional loss and is shaped by dependency on others, restricted choices, physical barriers and adverse reactions of others.

The purpose of this research is to assess the dynamics of resilience on single-parent mother who has a child with double-handicap, starting from the initial phase before and after the diagnosis of double-handicap, stress phase because of the escapement of husband and several risk factors that may arise, up to the phase of adaptation and strengthening. This research used the qualitative method by conducting observation and interview to three informants who domiciled in Kendari. The results showed that there are risk factors which become the initial process in the dynamics of resilience on single-parent mother who has a child with double-handicap, such as family disfunction, financial and social problems, parenting stress on the mother and a belief that mystical factor was causing the problems. Those problems raised negative impacts toward the psychological and physical condition. The attempt made to solve the problems was centered on problem focused coping and emotional focus coping by gaining support from the environment and doing daily activities. The processes of raising and strengthening of resilience on single-parent mother who has a child with double-handicap is also supported by protective factors such as hopefulness, learning from experience, the bond between child and mother, and religious belief.

Preference for non-use of hearing aids among older adults who are candidates for amplification remains to be explained. Clinical studies have examined the contribution of consumer attitudes, behaviors, and life circumstances to this phenomenon. The present study extends the interests of earlier investigators in that it examines psychological control tendencies in combination with hearing loss and demographic variables among older adults who elected to accept (adherents) or ignore (nonadherents) advice from hearing professionals to acquire and use hearing aids. One hundred thirty-one individuals participated by completing measures of hearing, hearing handicap, psychological control, depression, and ego strength. Participants were asked to provide demographic information and personal opinions regarding hearing aid use. Adherence group and gender differences were noted on measures of hearing sensitivity, psychological control, and demographic factors. Female adherents demonstrated greater hearing loss and poorer word recognition ability but less hearing handicap, higher internal locus of control, higher ego strength, and fewer depressive tendencies than female nonadherents. They reported demographic advantages. Female adherents assumed responsibility for effective communication. Although male adherents and nonadherents did not differ significantly demographically, male adherents were more accepting of their hearing loss, took responsibility for communication problems, and found hearing aids less stigmatizing. Implications for clinical practice and future clinical investigations are identified and discussed. Results are expected to be of interest to clinicians, clinical investigators, and health care policymakers.

The impact of tinnitus and overall levels of distress were measured with three assessment tools for patients with tinnitus. The Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI), the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised (SCL-90-R) and an activities limitations questionnaire were administered to 53 audiology patients reporting tinnitus. Forty-three percent of these patients experienced either quality of life reductions associated with tinnitus, substantial perceived handicap, and/or a high level of distress. Results from the General Severity Index (GSI) of the SCL-90-R indicated that 25% of these patients displayed distress greater than that of the general medical population. The SCL-90-R can be a useful tool for audiologists working with tinnitus patients in assessing needs for referral for psychological or psychiatric counseling.

ABSTRACT Objective: To assess the impact of malocclusion on the quality of life. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 150 subjects attending the Primary Care Unit with no history of orthodontic treatment. The Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI) with 10 occlusal characteristics were measured on study models. Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) was assessed with the Malaysian version of the Oral Health Impact Profile questionnaire (OHIP-14). The Spearman rank-order correlation coefficient was used to evaluate the relationship between the malocclusion and quality of life. Results: Significantly weak correlations (r = .176) were found between the DAI and the OHRQoL. Females and the younger age group (12–19 years) tended to score higher on the OHIP-14 than their counterparts. For males, domain 3 (psychological discomfort; r = .462), domain 4 (physical disability; r = .312), domain 7 (handicap; r = .309), and overall score (r = .289) were weak correlates but significant to the DAI compared with females. The older age group showed a significant weak correlation in domain 3 (psychological discomfort; r = .268) and domain 7 (handicap; r = .238), whereas the younger age group showed no correlation with any domain. Conclusions: The DAI score does not predict the effect of malocclusion on the OHRQoL.

Adaptation level theory of tinnitus and neuropsychological theory of tinnitus are extensively used frameworks for understanding emotional and psychological distress among tinnitus sufferers. Objective of the present study was to investigate potential associations between hearing loss, tinnitus, anxiety, depression, and stress. The Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (Newman, Jacobson, & Spitzer, 1996) and the Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale (Lovibond & Lovibond, 1995)scales were administered to a sample of 110 tinnitus outpatients recruited from Audiology departments of Lahore and Rawalpindi hospitals. Results revealed tinnitus was positively linked with psychological problems. Additionally, it was established that tinnitus is a positive significant predictor for anxiety, stress and depression. The moderation models related to the interactions between psychological problems and hearing loss were negative significant predictors for tinnitus symptoms. Moreover, the comparative analysis between gender differences revealed a significant diversity in the levels of stress, anxiety, and depression. Results also elucidated that patients at initial stages of hearing loss were more prone towards reporting tinnitus symptoms along with emerging psychological problems.

Family functioning and child temperament variables were investigated as predictors of psychologic and social adaptation in 42 children with congenital or acquired limb deficiencies. Higher psychologic and social adaptation were seen when there was more family cohesion and moral-religious emphasis and organization, in combination with less family conflict. With regard to child temperament, more emotionality predicted greater internalizing and externalizing behavior problems and less social competence. In addition to the main effects of the family functioning and child temperament predictor variables, the interaction between family cohesion and child emotionality significantly predicted both internalizing and externalizing behavior problems. The findings are discussed in terms of the risk and protective effects of family functioning domains and temperament on the psychologic and social adaptation of children with visible physical handicaps.

Background: Tinnitus may be a disabling, distressing disorder whereby patients report of sounds, in the absence of external stimulus. Recent evidence supports the effectiveness of psychological interventions, particularly, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) based intervention for the reduction of tinnitus-related distress and disability. This study assessed the effectiveness of mobile delivered cognitive training exercises to reduce tinnitus-related distress. Materials and Methods: Out of 26 patients diagnosed with tinnitus, 14 participants completed all 48 levels of the app. Levels of pre-post intervention tinnitus intrusiveness and handicap were evaluated using the short Hebrew version of the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (H-THI). Mood was assessed using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Participants were instructed to complete 3–4 min of daily training for 14 days. Results: Repeated-measures ANOVA of completers showed a significant large-effect size reduction on H-THI scores. 50% of completers have shown reliable change (indicated by their Reliable Change Index [RCI] scores). No significant change was found in mood. Discussion: Several minutes a day of training using a CBT-based app targeting maladaptive believes may decreased patients' tinnitus intrusiveness and handicap. Conclusions: Mobile apps can provide access to CBT-based interventions, using an efficient, inviting and simple platform, addressing the ramifications of tinnitus symptoms.

BackgroundControlled trials have shown that psychological interventions designed to encourage graded exercise can facilitate recovery from chronic fatigue syndrome.AimsTo identify predictors of response to psychological treatment for chronic fatigue syndrome.MethodOf 114 patients assigned to equally effective treatment conditions in a randomised, controlled trial, 95 completed follow-up assessments. Relationships between variables measured prior to randomisation and changes in physical functioning and subjective handicap at 1 year were evaluated by multiple regression.ResultsPoor outcome was predicted by membership of a self-help group, being in receipt of sickness benefit at the start of treatment, and dysphoria as measured by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale. Severity of symptoms and duration of illness were not predictors of response.ConclusionsPoor outcome in the psychological treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome is predicted by variables that indicate resistance to accepting the therapeutic rationale, poor motivation to treatment adherence or secondary gains from illness.

The long-term impact of neurotological symptoms after a temporal bone fracture (TBF), including facial nerve palsy (FP), hearing loss, tinnitus, and dizziness on the quality of life of patients is often underevaluated. Thus, we retrospectively assessed 30 patients with TBF (26 men and 4 women) in our university tertiary referral center. They participated from injury onset to the final follow-up, over an 18-month period. Quality of life was estimated using validated questionnaires, such as the Facial Disability Index (FDI: physical and social), Hearing Handicap Inventory (HHI), Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI), and Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI). The FDI score was significantly worse in patients with severe initial (for physical FDI) and final facial palsy (for both physical and social FDI), mainly with immediate onset. The HHI score was statistically worse in patients with mixed hearing loss compared to those with conductive or sensorineural hearing loss and in those with profound hearing loss vs. normal hearing. The mixed TBF and the severity of hearing loss (especially profound hearing loss) were correlated with HHI, THI and DHI score values. In the long-term period after a TBF, moderate or severe facial palsy, mainly with immediate onset, may cause psychological distress, more easily resulting in social disability than functional impairment. Mixed TBF and mixed or profound hearing loss may also negatively influence quality of life.

Abstract OBJECTIVE To assesses the quality of life and the impact of oral health conditions in the pre- and post-surgical correction of dentofacial deformity of individuals with cleft lip and palate. METHOD Quantitative and prospective study in a referral hospital in the period from June 2011 to May 2013. A total of 50 participants responded the questionnaires World Health Organization Quality of Life - Bref (WHOQOL-Bref) and Oral Health Impact Profile - 14 (OHIP-14), approximately 3 days before and 3 to 12 months after surgery. The "t" test for paired samples and Wilcoxon test were used for statistical analysis with a significance level of 5%. RESULTS After surgery, differences were found in the domains: Physical, Psychological, Environmental and General Questions of the WHOQOL-Bref and domains: Psychological Discomfort, Psychological Disability, Social Disability, Handicap and Overall Score of OHIP-14. CONCLUSION Surgical correction of dentofacial deformity improved quality of life and had positive impact of oral health condition.
