title: [Study on sociopsychological factors in patients with occupational hand injury].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the role of sociopsychological factors in occupational hand injury and to provide a reference for intervention measures.
  
  
  METHODS
  The sociopsychological factors in 150 patients with occupational hand injury who were admitted to the Department of Hand Surgery from January to June in 2014 and 150 pair-matched normal controls were surveyed using self-made questionnaire and Life Event Scale (LES). A comparative study was carried out using t test, χ² test, and conditional logistic regression analysis.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The demographic characteristics, such as length of service, education level, and marital status, showed significant differences between the two groups (P<0.05) ; the LES total score and values of positive life events and negative life events also showed significant differences between the study group and control group (P<0.01) ; single-factor and multi-factor conditional logistic regression analyses showed that length of service, marital status, and negative events score were statistically significant variables (P<0.01).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Sociopsychological factors play an important role in the occurrence of occupational hand injury.
