摘要
目的:本研究探讨笑声疗法对养老院老年人生活满意度和孤独感的影响。设计:采用前测-后测设计进行单盲、平行组、随机对照试验(ClinicalTrials NCT03687788)。方法:被试31例，对照组31例。实验组在常规护理的基础上，每周接受两次笑声治疗，持续6周。对照组患者仅接受常规护理。孤独感采用De Jong Gierveld孤独量表测量，生活满意度采用生活满意度量表测量。结果:6周后，两组患者的De Jong Gierveld孤独量表总分差异有统计学意义，实验组的亚量表得分下降。结论:笑声疗法可以减少老年人的孤独感。临床相关性:医疗保健专业人员，特别是护士，可以潜在地使用笑声疗法来减少老年人的孤独感。
Effects of Laughter Therapy on Life Satisfaction and Loneliness in Older Adults Living in Nursing Homes in Turkey: A Parallel Group Randomized Controlled Trial.
Purpose: This study examined the effects of laughter therapy on life satisfaction and loneliness in older adults living in nursing homes.
Design: A single-blind, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial (ClinicalTrials NCT03687788) with a pretest-posttest design was conducted.
Methods: There were 31 experimental participants and 31 controls. The experimental group received laughter therapy twice a week for 6 weeks, along with usual care. The control group received usual care only. Loneliness was measured with the De Jong Gierveld Loneliness Scale, and life satisfaction was measured with the Satisfaction With Life Scale.
Findings: After 6 weeks, there was a statistically significant difference in De Jong Gierveld Loneliness Scale total score between the two groups, and the subscale scores of the experimental group decreased.
Conclusions: Laughter therapy may reduce loneliness in older adults.
Clinical relevance: Healthcare professionals, especially nurses, can potentially use laughter therapy to reduce loneliness in older adults.
