Abstract

Purpose: The study investigated the social-emotional functioning of children with typical hearing and deaf and hard of hearing (D/HH) children from diverse cultural backgrounds in Israel through parental reports.

Method: A total of 242 parents from both Arabic and Jewish communities participated: 130 were parents of D/HH children and 112 were parents of children with typical hearing. The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire and a background questionnaire were used.

Results: Results revealed increased total difficulties, emotional symptoms, and peer problems as reported by parents of D/HH children. Jewish parents of D/HH children reported greater total difficulties, conduct problems, and peer problems than Arab parents. Significant gender differences were found, with parents of boys reporting higher levels of hyperactivity/inattention and lower prosocial behavior. Among D/HH children, Arab parents reported higher peer problems among hearing aid users compared to cochlear implant users, whereas Jewish parents reported the opposite trend.

Conclusion: These findings highlight the significant social-emotional challenges faced by D/HH children, particularly in peer interactions, and underscore the need for tailored interventions that consider cultural differences.

不同听力状况和不同文化背景儿童的社会情感功能。

目的：本研究通过家长的报告，调查以色列不同文化背景的典型听力儿童和聋人及重听儿童（D/HH）的社会情感功能：共有 242 名来自阿拉伯和犹太社区的家长参加了调查：方法：共有 242 名来自阿拉伯和犹太社区的家长参加了调查：130 名是聋人/重听儿童的家长，112 名是典型听力儿童的家长。调查使用了优势和困难问卷以及背景问卷：结果显示，残疾/听力障碍儿童的父母在总体困难、情绪症状和同伴问题方面的报告有所增加。与阿拉伯裔家长相比，患有聋哑/听力障碍儿童的犹太裔家长报告的总体困难、行为问题和同伴问题更多。研究还发现了明显的性别差异，男童家长报告的多动/注意力不集中程度较高，亲社会行为较低。在D/HH儿童中，阿拉伯家长报告的助听器使用者的同伴问题高于人工耳蜗使用者，而犹太家长报告的趋势正好相反：这些发现凸显了残疾/听障儿童所面临的重大社会情感挑战，尤其是在同伴交往方面，并强调有必要采取考虑文化差异的定制干预措施。
