关于聋哑人自尊的决定因素的研究经常得出不一致的结果。目前的研究评估了与耳聋相关的因素对自尊的影响，例如家庭沟通方式和助听器听力损失的严重程度，以及聋人在有听力的世界中应对日常生活所采取的应对方式。数据是在加州州立大学北岭分校的聋哑学生中收集的。分层回归模型显示，对聋人社区的认同显着有助于积极的自尊。结果还显示，听力损失程度较高且具有有助于他们在听力和聋人社区中发挥作用的双文化技能的聋生通常具有更高的自尊。讨论了进一步研究的意义。
Research studies on the determinants of self-esteem of deaf individuals often yield inconsistent findings. The current study assessed the effects on self-esteem of factors related to deafness, such as the means of communication at home and severity of hearing loss with hearing aid, as well as the coping styles that deaf people adopt to cope with everyday life in a hearing world. Data were collected among the deaf students of California State University, Northridge. Hierarchical regression modeling showed that identification with the Deaf community significantly contributed to positive self-esteem. Results also revealed that deaf students with greater degree of hearing loss and with bicultural skills that help them function in both the hearing and the Deaf community generally have higher self-esteem. Implications for further study are discussed.
