    Pre-lingual deaf individuals exhibit personality traits suggesting isolation, while post-lingual deaf individuals show heightened health concerns. These distinct personality profiles influence how profoundly deaf people confront their deafness.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychology
    • Audiology
    • Psychiatry

    Background:

    • Profoundly deaf individuals, categorized as pre-lingual or post-lingual, differ in their engagement with technological and genetic advancements.
    • Understanding these differences requires a holistic examination of personality traits in deaf and non-deaf populations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To conduct a comparative personality study of pre-lingual deaf, post-lingual deaf, and non-deaf individuals.
    • To identify significant personality differences and their correlation with deafness onset.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized the Mini-Mult personality questionnaire across three distinct samples: pre-lingual deaf, post-lingual deaf, and non-deaf participants.
    • Analyzed responses across five clinical scales: hypochondria (Hs), hysteria (Hy), paranoia (Pa), psychasthenia (Pt), and schizophrenia (Sc).

    Main Results:

    • Statistically significant personality differences were observed between deaf and non-deaf groups across multiple clinical scales.
    • Pre-lingual deaf individuals scored high on the schizophrenia scale (Sc), indicating potential isolation linked to deafness.
    • Post-lingual deaf individuals presented with high scores on the hypochondria scale (Hs), suggesting significant health-related hypersensitivity and fears.

    Conclusions:

    • Personality traits significantly influence how profoundly deaf individuals cope with their deafness.
    • Factors such as education and employment status notably impact post-lingual deaf individuals' feelings of loneliness, mental state, and potential paranoia.
    • The distinct personality profiles of pre-lingual and post-lingual deaf individuals necessitate tailored approaches in understanding and support.
