摘要: 目的:考察自尊在老年人身体健康感知与死亡恐惧之间的中介作用。方法:采用死亡恐惧量表、身体健康感知量表、自尊量表对230名老年人进行问卷调查。结果:1) 60~70岁和70~80岁的老年人组的死亡恐惧显著高于80岁以上老年人组;2) 老年人的死亡恐惧与身体健康感知和自尊显著负相关;3)自尊在老年人身体健康感知与死亡恐惧之间起中介作用。结论:老年人的身体健康感知除了直接预测死亡恐惧,还通过自尊间接预测死亡恐惧。
Abstract: Objective: To investigate the mediating effect of self-esteem between old people’s health percep-tion and thanatophobia. Methods: 230 elderly people were surveyed for using the thanatophobia scale, health perception scale and self-esteem scale. Results: 1) Thanatophobia in the age of 60~70 years old (18.18 ± 6.52) and 70~80 years old was significantly higher than those of the elderly over 80 years old; 2) Thanatophobia in the elderly was negatively related to health perception and self-esteem; 3) Self-esteem plays a significant mediating effect role between the old people’s health perception and thanatophobia.
