ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to explore the relationships between self-reported hopelessness and risk factors for premature mortality in people with serious mental illness (SMI). Data were extracted from the 2014 Health Center Patient Survey (N = 5,592). Having a diagnosis of SMI was significantly associated with self-reported hopelessness. Hypertension or high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder were significantly associated with self-reported hopelessness. Higher levels of hopelessness were found to be significantly associated with increased alcohol consumption. Hopelessness may be an important dimension of health in people with SMI.

有严重精神疾病经历的人的绝望与早期死亡危险因素之间的关系


摘要：本研究的目的是探讨严重精神疾病（SMI）患者自我报告的绝望与过早死亡的危险因素之间的关系。数据取自 2014 年健康中心患者调查 (N = 5,592)。诊断出 SMI 与自我报告的绝望感显着相关。高血压、充血性心力衰竭和慢性阻塞性肺疾病与自我报告的绝望显着相关。研究发现，更高程度的绝望感与饮酒量增加显着相关。绝望可能是 SMI 患者健康的一个重要方面。
