碩士 === 國立臺北護理健康大學 === 生死教育與輔導研究所 === 99 === The influence on family function and psycho-social adaptation in patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus(SLE) was studied. Four goals were set for this study. The first goal was to understand the current status on family function and psycho-social adaptation in SLE patients with different individual backgrounds. The second goal was to study and explore the associated factors on family function and psycho-social adaptation in SLE patients with different individual backgrounds. The third goal was to explore whether the correlation between simplified Family APGAR Index and Family Function Scale can serve as tool to evaluate the family function in SLE patients, by related statistical analysis. The fourth goal was to serve as a reference for related future researchers, and for the practice of counseling. A total of 201 purposive samples were studied. The majority of the study subjects were from a SLE association in northern Taiwan. Other subjects were from mails, referrals, and SLE online forums. Information on backgrounds, Family Function Scale, Family APGAR Index and psycho-social adaptation of study subjects were collected based on their scales.Current status and related issues on Family Function Scale, Family APGAR Index and psycho-social adaptation Index in SLE patients were analyzed and comprehended. Prediction of psycho-social adaptation could be made based on Family Function Scale. Techniques utilized to collect, interpret, and analyze the statistics of this study include -method of descriptive statistics, the T test, one-way ANOVA, the Pearson product -moment correlation, and multiple stepwise regression analysis. Results are summarized as the followings: 1.SLE patients with different backgrounds adapt differently in terms of family function and psycho-social adaptation. 2.The cohesion, conflict, affective involvement, affective responsiveness, communication, problem solving, independence, roles in Family Function Scale versus the psychological, interpersonal, illness and roles adaptability in psycho-social adaptation: ‧These two factors have weak to moderate positive-correlation. 3.Family APGAR versus the result of the psychological, interpersonal, illness and roles adaptability in psycho-social adaptation: ‧These two factors have moderate positive-correlation. 4.The cohesion, affective responsiveness, communication, problem solving, independence, roles in Family Function Scale versus the result of Family APGAR : ‧These two factors have positive-correlation. The conflict, affective involvement in Family Function Scale versus the result of Family APGAR: ‧These two factors have negative-correlation. 5.Predictions of problem solving and affective involvement are related to psycho-social adaptation. Prediction most related to psycho-social adaptation is problem solving. 6.Predictions of problem solving and affective involvement are related to psychological and interpersonal adaptability in psycho-social adaptation. Prediction most related to psycho-social adaptation is problem solving. 7.Predictions of problem solving and independence are related to illness adaptability in psycho-social adaptation. Prediction most related to psycho-social adaptation is problem solving. 8.Predictions of affective involvement and communication are related to roles adaptability in psycho-social adaptation. Prediction most related to psycho-social adaptation is affective involvement.
