Abstract

Introduction: Disabled adolescents are facing the adversity of life like social expectations, academic, and economic demands. Objective: This described deaf and female adolescents’ resilience with their respective counterparts using the Connor–Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-25). The resilience of disabled and female adolescents was not adequately addressed in the study province, Dangila, Amhara-Ethiopia. Methods: The study was conducted on 160 adolescent (80 deaf [40 female] and 80 hearing [40 female]) students who were selected based on multistage sampling. Quantitative and qualitative data collections were made through the questionnaire as well as interview. The study used mean, standard deviation, independent t-test and ANOA, and simple description for data analysis. Result: The results revealed that hearing adolescent students’ average resilience score was significantly greater than deaf students. It was also shown that female adolescent students’ level of average resilience score was found significantly less than their counterparts. Analysis of variance revealed that there was a significant difference in resilience score among deaf female, deaf male, hearing female, and hearing male adolescent students in which deaf female adolescent students resilience score was the lowest. Conclusion: The difference in resilience between deaf and hearing students signified deaf students’ capability to cope with stressors and academic demands was less than their counterparts, and the resilience of deaf female students was found the lowest among the groups. This calls for health and psychological professional and families to provide adequate support for deaf and female adolescents to develop resilience.

青少年、残疾和性别的复原力

残疾青少年面临着社会期望、学业和经济需求等生活逆境。目的:采用康诺-戴维森心理弹性量表(CD-RISC-25)对聋人青少年和女性青少年的心理弹性进行描述。在埃塞俄比亚阿姆哈拉丹吉拉省的研究中，残疾青少年和女性青少年的复原力没有得到充分的解决。方法:采用多阶段抽样法抽取160名青少年学生(其中聋人80名[女40名]，健全人80名[女40名])进行研究。通过问卷调查和访谈进行了定量和定性的数据收集。本研究采用均值、标准差、独立t检验和方差分析，采用简单描述法进行数据分析。结果:听力正常的青少年学生心理弹性平均分显著高于失聪学生。女大学生的心理韧性平均得分水平显著低于男大学生。方差分析显示，聋女、聋男、健全女、健全男青少年心理弹性得分存在显著差异，其中聋女青少年心理弹性得分最低。结论:聋人与正常听力学生的心理弹性差异表明聋人学生应对压力源和学业要求的能力低于正常听力学生，其中聋人女生的心理弹性最低。这就要求保健和心理专业人员以及家庭为聋人青少年和女性青少年提供充分的支持，以培养适应能力。
