Abstract
There are few studies that have explored the Quality of Life (QoL) for deaf adolescents in high school (13–18 years). Following the PRISMA guidelines, this systematic literature review examined peer-reviewed research that has explored QoL for deaf adolescents in high school by using databases such as Science Citation Index, Scopus and Social Science Citation Index in addition to some related journals such as American Annals of the Deaf, the Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, Ear and Hearing, and Deafness and Education International spanning 14 years (2010–2024). By analysing the titles, abstracts, and keywords and reading full manuscripts, only seven were deemed appropriate for inclusion in this systematic review. All seven studies used quantitative research. This systematic review found that there is a discrepancy between the studies included in the use of measures. The results of the studies are different and some are contradictory. The QoL concept also differed amongst the studies. This study concluded that there is a great need to conduct more research into the QoL of deaf adolescents in high school with diverse research methods and the use of qualitative or mixed research, as well as expanding the scope of studies to include more dimensions in the concept of QoL.
有关高中(13-18 岁)失聪青少年生活质量(QoL)的研究很少。本系统性文献综述遵循 PRISMA 准则,利用科学引文索引、Scopus 和社会科学引文索引等数据库,以及《美国聋人年鉴》、《聋人研究和聋人教育期刊》、《耳与听》和《国际聋人与教育》等相关期刊,对同行评审的、探讨高中聋人青少年生活质量的研究进行了审查,时间跨度长达 14 年(2010-2024 年)。通过分析标题、摘要和关键词并阅读完整稿件,只有七篇被认为适合纳入本系统综述。所有七项研究都采用了定量研究。本系统综述发现,所纳入的研究在使用措施方面存在差异。研究结果各不相同,有些甚至相互矛盾。各项研究的 QoL 概念也不尽相同。本研究的结论是,亟需对高中失聪青少年的 QoL 进行更多的研究,采用多样化的研究方法,使用定性或混合研究,并扩大研究范围,纳入 QoL 概念的更多维度。
