摘要
目的研究老年人述情障碍和读心能力的关系。方法108名70岁以上的老年被试接受读心能力、认知能力测试和多伦多述情障碍量表（TAS-20）调查。结果述情障碍高分组与低分组在读心能力[（16．00±4．84）分，（19．36±2．91）分，t=3．38，P〈0．01]、一般认知能力上差异有显著性[记忆广度上（5．80±1．42）分，（7．18±1．13）分，t=4．28，P〈0．01；工作记忆上，t=4．05，P〈0．01；加工速度上，t=4．80，P〈0．01]。述情障碍与读心能力（r=-0．227，P〈0．05）、记忆广度（r=-0．377，P〈0．01）、工作记忆（r=-0．334，P〈0．01）、加工速度（r=-0．470，P〈0．01）成绩呈显著负相关。在回归分析中，读心能力、认知加工、受教育程度等自变量对述情障碍量表总分（F=8．594，P〈0．01）和因子1（F=8．796，P〈0．01）的回归方程显著，但对因子2（F=1．735，P〉0．05）和因子3（F=1．181，P〉0．05）的回归方程不显著。结论老年人述情障碍与读心能力、几种认知加工能力存在负相关；读心能力与加工速度可能影响述情能力的情绪识别，而不影响情绪描述和外向型思维。
Objective To study of relationship between elderly people＇ s alexithymia and mind-reading. Methods There were 108 old people over 70 years old, tested by mind-reading, cognitive ability and twenty-item Toronto alexithymia scale. Results There were significant difference in mind-reading （ 16.00 ± 4.84, 19.36 ± 2.91, t=3.38, P〈0.01）, memory span（5.80 ±1.42,7.18 ±1.13, t =4.28, P〈0.01）, working memory（t= 4.05, P〈 0.01 ） ,processing speed（t=-4.80, P 〈 0.01 ） between high and low alexithymia groups. Alexithymia scores were negatively related to the scores of mind-reading, memory span, working memory, processing speed, correlation coefficient was 0. 227 （P 〈 0.05 ）, - 0. 377 （P 〈 0.01 ）, - 0. 334 （P 〈 0.01 ） , - 0. 470 （P 〈 0.01 ）, respectively. With mind-reading, cognitive processing and educational level as independent variables, with total scores, F1, F2, and F3 of TAS as dependent variable, respectively,the regression equation of total scores was significant （F = 8. 594, P 〈 0.01 ）, and the one of F1 was significant（F= 8. 796, P〈 0.01 ） ,but the one of F2（F= 1. 735, P〉 0.05） and F3 （F = 1.181, P 〉 0.05 ） was not significant. Conclusion Elderly people＇ s alexithymia is negatively related to mind-reading and several cognitive abilities. Mind-reading could affect emotional recognition, but not affect emotional description and export-oriented thinking.
