摘要
本研究探讨了32名老年非裔美国人和32名老年白种人在疼痛感知方面的异同。通过麦吉尔-梅尔扎克疼痛问卷调查,研究发现两组人都选择唠叨这个词来描述他们的疼痛。2 × 2方差分析显示,两组受试者当前疼痛强度(PPI)差异有统计学意义(F = 6.30, df = 1, P = 0.015)。Pearson积差相关显示PPI与种族之间存在中等相关性(r = 0.36, P = 0.01)。
A comparison of pain perception of elderly African Americans and Caucasians.
This study explored the differences and similarities in pain perception reported by 32 elderly African Americans and 32 elderly Caucasian subjects. Using the McGill-Melzack Pain Questionnaire, the study revealed that both groups chose the word nagging most frequently to describe their pain. A 2 by 2 analysis of variance indicated a statistically significant difference between the subjects in terms of the present pain intensity (PPI) (F = 6.30, df = 1, P = .015). Pearson's Product Moment Correlation revealed a moderate correlation (r = .36, P = .01) between PPI and ethnicity.
