Abstract

Psychological disorders affect the life of both patients and their family members. Family members of psychological patients play a vital part in treatment and intervention of patients suffering from psychological problems. Their support may facilitate the patient in treatment as well as on the other hand may contribute to exacerbation. However, such family members also suffer while dealing with their relatives who suffer from psychological disorders. Therefore, this study is intended to find out how family accommodation causes impairment in treatment of ObsessiveCompulsive Disorder (OCD) patients, to measure the burden of care (in terms of six dimensions i.e., financial burden, disruption of family routine, disruption of family leisure, disruption of family interaction, effect on physical health of others and effect on mental health of others) and to determine the level of psychological distress in family members of OCD patients. The present correlational research was consisted of 120 family members (42 men, 78 women), who were the primary caregivers. Result of Pearson Product Moment Correlation showed a highly significant positive relationship between family accommodation, caregiver burden and psychological distress. Mediation analysis was done using process which showed that caregiver burden mediated the relationship between family accommodation and psychological distress. Family interventions regarding accommodation by family members can be provided in order to improve the patient treatment and research findings can also be implied to teach coping strategies to family members in order to deal the burden they experienced.

强迫症患者家属的家庭住宿、照顾者负担与心理困扰

心理障碍影响患者及其家庭成员的生活。心理患者家属在心理问题患者的治疗和干预中起着至关重要的作用。他们的支持可能有助于患者的治疗，但另一方面也可能导致病情恶化。然而，这些家庭成员在与患有心理障碍的亲属打交道时也会感到痛苦。因此，本研究旨在了解家庭住宿如何导致强迫症(ObsessiveCompulsive Disorder, OCD)患者治疗受损，测量护理负担(从经济负担、扰乱家庭日常、扰乱家庭休闲、扰乱家庭互动、影响他人身体健康和影响他人心理健康六个维度)，并确定强迫症患者家庭成员的心理困扰水平。目前的相关研究包括120名家庭成员(42名男性，78名女性)，他们是主要的照顾者。Pearson积矩相关结果显示，家庭住宿、照顾者负担与心理困扰呈极显著正相关。采用流程进行中介分析，发现照顾者负担在家庭迁就与心理困扰之间起中介作用。可以提供家庭成员住宿方面的家庭干预措施，以改善患者的治疗，也可以暗示研究结果，向家庭成员传授应对策略，以减轻他们所经历的负担。东盟精神病学杂志，Vol. 22(9)， 2021年11月:1-8
