摘要:本文是一篇澳大立业留学生课程作业,主要介绍了老年人的心理健康及社会认知度问题。

老年人的精神健康问题并没有像其他年龄组那样经常发生。然而,精神健康问题在老年人中的重要性是不容忽视的。最常见的精神健康问题,包括认知障碍,痴呆,学习障碍,抑郁,焦虑(Stuart-Hamilton 2012)。在这些问题中,抑郁症的发生最频繁的,平均7个老人中会有一个老人受到抑郁症的困扰(Alzheimer's Society 2007)。研究还表明,有越来越多的老年痴呆症患者,估计到2021年,老年痴呆症患者将达到一百万人。阿尔茨海默氏对老年人的精神健康和日常生活的影响是显著的,将会导致记忆丧失和身体的变化,也影响他们的家庭和社区(Woods 2011)。


Mental health problems among older people do not occur as often as they do in other age group. However, the importance of understanding mental health issues in older people cannot be ignored. The most common mental health issues that can happen in later life include cognitive impairment, dementia, learning disabilities, depression, and anxiety (Stuart-Hamilton 2012). Among those issues, depression happens most frequently, influencing one in seven older people (Age Scotland 2012). Studies also show that there are a growing number of people with dementia, which is estimated to reach almost 1 million by 2021 (Alzheimer's Society 2007). The causes of those problems vary but their impact on older people's mental well-being and daily life can be significant. Memory loss and changes, challenging behaviours also influence their families and other people in communities (Woods 2011).

In a study by Sproston (1999), 7% of 910 Chinese immigrants were reported to possibly have a psychiatric disorder, less than half of the proportion among general population (17%). Nazroo (1997) also found that prevalence of anxiety among male Chinese in the community sample the UK was 5% compared with 12% among white males. The prevalence of anxiety among female Chinese was also lower than that among white females (10% and 23% respectably) (Nazroo 1997). Those studies can indicate that Chinese people in the UK are mentally healthier than native white people in those sample communities. However, because of the both studies were based on relatively small scale approach, they may not be able to reflect mental health of whole Chinese population in the UK. It has been reported that Chinese people with mental health issues are underrepresented in the health services of the UK, lower than other ethnic minority groups (Wong and Cochrane 1989, Li 1991, Sproston et al. 1999).

The causes of mental health issues among Chinese older people in the UK vary. Some perceived causes by themselves and other Chinese people include family problems, financial difficulties, loneliness and isolation, poor physical health, life events such as bereavement (Li et al. 1999, Tran et al. 2008, Wah Kin Project 2011). It was indicated in literature that mental problems happened more often in older generation among Chinese immigrants (Cowan 2001). But the prevalence of Chinese elders who has mental health needs in the UK is not clear when I was searching the literature. Their understandings of mental health issues and experience of mental health services have been addressed by many studies, which I will now summarise.

Lack of Knowledge about Mental Health Issues
General understanding of mental health issues of Chinese people has largely been affected by traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years. It is suggested that the physical health and mental health should be in harmony, which is regarded as holistic approach (Chau 2008). There is no separate concept of mental health from physical health in Chinese medicine (Wong and Richman 2004). This reflection on many studies about the understanding of mental hea论文英语论文网提供整理,提供论文代写英语论文代写代写论文代写英语论文代写留学生论文代写英文论文留学生论文代写相关核心关键词搜索。
