本研究旨在探讨生活回顾回忆活动对被试自报抑郁和自尊的影响。该研究采用了前测-后测实验设计,其中24名生活在退休社区的老年人被随机分配到实验组和对照组。实验组参加了六次生活回顾会议,之后所有受试者重新阅读贝克抑郁量表和罗森伯格自尊调查表。协方差分析表明,生活回顾回忆活动对抑郁和自尊没有显著影响。这些研究结果意味着,参与生活回顾活动并没有负面影响这个样本以及老年人和生活回顾回忆是一个值得这个年龄组的活动。
The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of life review reminiscence activities on reported depression and self-esteem. The study used a pretest-posttest experimental design in which 24 well older adults living in a retirement community were randomly assigned to experimental and comparison groups. The experimental group participated in six life review sessions, after which all subjects were readministered the Beck Depression Inventory and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Survey. An analysis of covariance indicated that life review reminiscence activities did not significantly affect depression and self-esteem. These findings imply that participation in life review activities did not negatively affect this sample of well older adults and that life review reminiscence is a worthwhile activity for this age group.
