Self-esteem in severely burned adults.
JPMA. the Journal of the Pakistan Medical Association 2017 December
A cross-sectional study was conducted to investigate the level of and gender difference in self-esteem among adult victims of severe burn injuries. Severely burned adults aged 20 to 40 years participated in this investigation from March 2015 to April 2016 in five hospitals of Faisalabad and Lahore. Purposive sampling technique was used and a self-esteem scale was used to assess different dimensions of self-esteem. Out of 40 patients, there were 25 men (62.5%) and 15 women (37.5%) with mean age of 28.28±4.60 years (range: 20-40 years). A significant positive relationship between subscales of self-esteem scale were found: self-acceptance and self-competence r=0.55, p<0.01; self-acceptance and academic self-competence r=0.47, p<0.01; self-acceptance and social and physical acceptance r=0.57, p<0.01; self-competence and academic self-competence r=0.48, p<0.01; self-competence and social and physical acceptance r=0.50, p<0.01; academic self-competence and social and physical acceptance r=0.45, p<0.01). Independent sample t-test indicated a significant difference between self-competence among severely burned men and women (t=2.18; p<0.05). A significant gender difference indicated higher affected levels specifically in the self-competency component of self-esteem among women victims.
