目的探讨青少年的行为和意见暴露在响亮的音乐从MP3 players.Study设计我们进行了定性分析的焦点小组讨论与青少年年龄在12岁至15岁，从2个大型中学（我城市和我农村）的职前和大学预科教育。半结构化的问题路线的理论框架内的保护motivationtheorety.Results的大多数学生，特别是男生和学生从职业先修学校表示，他们经常在最大音量播放他们的MP3播放器。虽然他们似乎普遍意识到暴露在嘈杂音乐中的风险，但他们表示对音乐引起的听力损失的个人脆弱性较低。大多数青少年说，他们不会接受任何干扰与他们的音乐曝光habites.Conclusions干预措施应针对学生从职前学校，并应侧重于增加青少年的知识大声音乐的风险，以及如何保护自己。除了对青少年进行听力教育和对MP3播放器进行技术改造外，可能还需要对MP3播放器进行音量级别的规定。
Objective To explore adolescents' behaviors and opinions about exposure to loud music from MP3 players.Study design We conducted a qualitative analysis of focus-group discussions with adolescents aged 12 to IS years from 2 large secondary schools (I urban and I rural) for pre-vocational and pre-university education. The semi-structured question route was theoretically framed within the protection motivation theory.Results Most adolescents-especially male students and students from pre-vocational schools-indicated that they often played their MP3 players at maximum volume. Although they appeared to be generally aware of the risks of exposure to loud music, they expressed low personal vulnerability to music-induced hearing loss. Most adolescents said that they would not accept any interference with their music-exposure habits.Conclusions Interventions should target students from pre-vocational schools and should focus on increasing adolescents' knowledge of the risks of loud music and how to protect themselves. Besides hearing education for adolescents and technical modifications of MP3 players, volume-level regulations for MP3 players may be warranted.
