Abstract

Purpose: Purpose: The study was planned to investigate the relationship between body image perception and life satisfaction of adult individuals with lower limb amputation. Material and Methods: Fifty-seven (14 female, 43 male) individuals with lower limb amputation were included in the study. The participants' gender, age, body mass index, amputation duration and side were recorded. Participants’ life satisfaction statuses were assed by Satisfaction with Life Questionnaire (SWLQ) and body image perception were assessed by the "Amputee Body Image Scale" (ABIS). Results: The study included 29 right, 23 left, and 5 bilateral lower extremity amputee (mean age 39.15±11.95 years). Individuals had SWLQ mean score of 25.94±5.77, ABIS personal factor score of 22.78±4.62, ABIS-social factor score of 17.64±6.74, ABIS-functional factor score of 14.59 ± 10.67 and ABIS total score of 52.80±10.73. There were statistically significant negative correlations between SWLQ total score and ABIS-personal factor (p=0.012, r=-0.330), ABIS-social factor (p=0.003, r=-0.393), ABIS- functional factor (p= 0.044, r=-0.268) and ABIS-total score (p=0.001, r=-0.515). Discussion: Through the data obtained from study, significant relationship was found between the body image perception and life satisfaction. In amputee rehabilitation, it is thought that body perception must be emphasized in order to support the attachment and participation to life.

Özet

Amaç: Çalışma, alt ekstremite ampütelerinde yetişkin bireylerin vücut imajı algısı ile yaşam memnuniyeti arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek amacıyla planlandı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırmaya 57 (14 kadın, 43 erkek) alt ekstremite ampütesi edildi. Çalışmaya dahil edilen bireylerin cinsiyeti, yaşı, beden kütle indeksi, ampütasyon süresi ve tarafı kaydedildi. Katılımcılarda yaşam memnuniyet düzeyi “Yaşam Memnuniyeti Skalası” (YMS) ile, vücut imajı algısı ise “Ampüte Vücut İmajı Skalası” (AVİS) ile değerlendirildi. Sonuçlar: Çalışmaya yaş ortalamaları 39,15±11,95 yıl olan 29 sağ, 23 sol ve 5 bilateral alt ekstremite ampütasyonlu birey dahil edildi. Katılımcıların YMS ortalama skoru 25,94±5,77, AVİS kişisel faktör skoru 22,78±4,62, AVİS-sosyal faktör skoru 17,64±6,74, AVİS-fonksiyonel faktör skoru 14,59±10,67 ve AVİS toplam skoru 52,80±10,73 olarak bulundu. YMS toplam skoru ile AVİS-kişisel faktör (p=0,012, r=-0,330), AVİS-sosyal faktör (p=0,003, r=-0,393), AVİS-fonksiyonel faktör (p= 0,044, r=-0,268) ve AVİS-toplam skoru (p=0,001, r=-0,515) arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı negatif yönde ilişki bulunmuştur. Tartışma: Çalışmadan elde edilen veriler aracılığıyla ampütelerin vücut imajı algısı ile yaşam memnuniyetleri arasında anlamlı ilişki ortaya koyulmuştur. Ampüte rehabilitasyonunda, bireyin hayata bağlanmasının ve katılımının desteklenmesi için vücut algısının üzerinde durulması gerektiği düşünülmektedir.
