title: [An exogenous psychotraumatizing factor as one of the causes for the development of neurotic reactions in subjects suffering from sensorineural hypoacusis].
abstract: We performed special psychological investigations in 120 patients with neurosensory hypoacusis (NSHA) and emotional somatovegetative disorders. These patients were found to have neurosis and neurosis-like conditions. To elucidate the involvement of the exogenic factor on the onset of neurotic reactions in NSHA, we performed a questionnaire survey reflecting the attitude of the family, coworkers, strangers to people with hearing problems. It was found that neuroses and neurosis-like conditions in NSHA patients are provoked not only by premorbid personality traits but also by exogenic psychotraumatic factors.
