Abstract

Background: Noise-Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) may have a significant effect on individual job performance (IJP). These effects may exert through aggression and work-related quality of life (WRQoL). Hence, the present study was conducted to investigate the modeling of the impact of NIHL on IJP by exploring the role of aggression and WRQoL.

Methods: In 2022, a comprehensive study was carried out on 335 industrial workers in Kaveh Industrial Town, Saveh, Iran. The study encompassed a range of assessments, including a questionnaire-based survey that included the IJP questionnaire, WRQoL questionnaire, and Aggression questionnaire, as well as a pure tone audiometry test. The data gathered from these assessments were analyzed using structural equation modeling, providing a robust framework for understanding the complex relationships between variables.

Results: Based on Spearman correlation test there is a negative correlation between NIHL_total and WRQoL and IJP, with coefficients of -0.459 (P-value < 0.01) and - 0.575 (P-value < 0.01), respectively. Additionally, there is a positive correlation between NIHL_total and aggression, with a coefficient of 0.374 (P-value < 0.05). The direct effect coefficients for the impact of NIHL_total on WRQoL, aggression, and IJP were - 0.412, 0.453, and - 0.128, respectively. Moreover, the indirect effect coefficients of NIHL_total on the IJP through aggression, through WRQoL, and through both aggression and WRQoL were - 0.057, -0.275, and - 0.078, respectively.

Conclusion: Overall, the results indicate that NIHL had a negative and positive association with WRQoL and aggression among workers, respectively. Furthermore, IJP was found to be directly and indirectly influenced by NIHL, through reduced WRQoL and aggressive behavior as negative consequences of NIHL.

噪声引起的听力损失对个人工作表现的影响：探索攻击行为和与工作相关的生活质量的作用。

背景：噪声性听力损失（NIHL）可能会对个人工作表现（IJP）产生重大影响。这些影响可能会通过侵犯和工作相关生活质量（WRQoL）产生。因此，本研究通过探讨攻击性和 WRQoL 的作用，研究 NIHL 对 IJP 的影响模型：2022 年，对伊朗萨韦省卡韦赫工业镇的 335 名产业工人进行了一项综合研究。该研究包含一系列评估，包括基于问卷的调查，其中包括 IJP 问卷、WRQoL 问卷和攻击性问卷，以及纯音听力测试。从这些评估中收集的数据采用结构方程模型进行分析，为理解变量之间的复杂关系提供了一个稳健的框架：根据斯皮尔曼相关性检验，NIHLtotal 与 WRQoL 和 IJP 之间存在负相关，系数为 -0.459（P 值为 total），而攻击性与 WRQoL、攻击性和 IJP 之间的系数为 0.374（P 值为 total），分别为 -0.412、0.453 和 -0.128。此外，NIHLtotal 通过攻击性、通过 WRQoL 以及通过攻击性和 WRQoL 对 IJP 的间接影响系数分别为 -0.057、-0.275 和 -0.078：总体而言，研究结果表明，NIHL 与工人的 WRQoL 和攻击行为分别存在负相关和正相关。此外，还发现 IJP 受到 NIHL 的直接和间接影响，其消极后果是 WRQoL 和攻击行为的降低。
