The aim of the study was to analyse the status of SE in people who are deaf or hard of hearing (D/HH) and compare SE scores between active and inactive individuals. The sample of people who are D/HH (n=117) was divided into two groups of those who are regularly participating in sport (active; n=27) and those who are not participating in any sport in their leisure (inactive; n=90). The Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) was used as a primary research method. 10-item scale measures global selfworth by measuring positive and negative feelings about the self. Higher scores (from 10 to 40 points) indicate higher SE. The Pearson chi-square test was used to determine the differences of 10 RSES items and total scores between active and inactive people who are D/HH. We found that the mean score of RSES in the group of people who are D/HH was 28.83 points; active people who are D/HH observed total score of RSES 30.18 points and group of inactive people who are D/HH showed the lowest SE by achieving 28.89 points. Mean scores comparison of each RSES item between active and inactive people who are D/HH revealed higher SE in the group of active people with hearing loss. Significantly higher SE of active people who are D/HH was presented only by 1 from 10 RSES items. The results of our study confirmed that actively living people with hearing loss have higher SE comparing those who are living sedentary life style.

聋哑或听力障碍者的自尊分析：活跃和不活跃个体之间的比较

这项研究的目的是分析聋哑或重听（D / HH）人群中SE的状况，并比较活跃和不活跃个体之间的SE得分。D / HH人群（n = 117）被分为两组，即定期参加运动的人群（活跃； n = 27）和不参加休闲运动的人群（不活跃； n = 90）。罗森伯格自尊量表（RSES）被用作主要研究方法。十项量表通过衡量对自我的正面和负面感觉来衡量全球自我价值。较高的分数（从10到40分）表示较高的SE。皮尔逊卡方检验用于确定D / HH活跃和非活跃人士之间10项RSES项和总分的差异。我们发现在D / HH人群中，RSES的平均得分为28.83分；D / HH活跃人群的RSES总得分为30.18分，D / HH非活跃人群的SE最低，为28.89分。D / HH活跃和非活跃人士之间每个RSES项的平均得分比较显示，在患有听力损失的活跃人群中，SE较高。在D / HH活跃人群中，只有10个RSES项目中的1个具有较高的SE。我们的研究结果证实，与那些久坐不动的生活方式相比，积极生活的听力丧失者的SE更高。D / HH活跃和非活跃人士之间每个RSES项的平均得分比较显示，在患有听力损失的活跃人群中，SE较高。在D / HH活跃人群中，只有10个RSES项目中的1个具有较高的SE。我们的研究结果证实，与那些久坐不动的生活方式相比，积极生活的听力丧失者的SE更高。D / HH活跃和非活跃人士之间每个RSES项的平均得分比较显示，在患有听力损失的活跃人群中，SE较高。在D / HH活跃人群中，只有10个RSES项目中的1个具有较高的SE。我们的研究结果证实，与那些久坐不动的生活方式相比，积极生活的听力丧失者的SE更高。
