Dataset_FertiQol_Gender_Couples

Epidemiological data show that human reproductive disorders are a common problem worldwide, affecting almost one in six people of reproductive age. As a result, infertility has been identified by the World Health Organization as a public health disease. Reproductive problems can take a heavy toll on the psychosocial well-being of couples suffering from infertility. This is especially true for women, who tend to be the ones who undergo the most treatment. The main objective of the present study is to find out whether a sex-based infertility diagnosis influences the quality of life of couples with infertility. Also, we aim to find out whether the degree of adherence to gender norms influences their quality of life. A cross-sectional study was conducted using the Fertility Quality of Life Questionnaire (FertiQoL) and the Conformity to Feminine and Masculine Norms Inventories in a sample of 219 infertile Spanish couples (438 participants). The results show that, in all cases, regardless of the degree of conformity to gender norms and whether the infertility diagnosis was of female or male origin, women have lower scores on the self-perceived quality of life. This suggests that being female is already a psychosocial risk factor when assessing the psychosocial conse-quences of infertility.

流行病学数据显示，人类生殖功能障碍是全球性常见健康问题，全球约六分之一的育龄人群受其影响。因此，世界卫生组织（World Health Organization, WHO）已将不孕症列为公共卫生疾病。生殖问题会对不孕夫妇的社会心理健康福祉造成严重损害，这一点在女性群体中尤为突出——她们往往需要接受更多的治疗干预。本研究的核心目标在于探究：基于性别划分的不孕症诊断是否会对不孕夫妇的生活质量产生影响；此外，本研究亦旨在探讨对性别规范的遵从程度是否会影响不孕夫妇的生活质量。本研究采用横断面研究（cross-sectional study）设计，纳入219对西班牙不孕夫妇（共438名受试者），使用生育生活质量问卷（Fertility Quality of Life Questionnaire, FertiQoL）与男女性别规范遵从量表（Conformity to Feminine and Masculine Norms Inventories）开展调研。研究结果显示：无论对性别规范的遵从程度如何，也无论不孕症诊断为女性源性还是男性源性，女性的自我感知生活质量得分均更低。这表明，在评估不孕症的社会心理影响时，女性身份本身即为一项社会心理风险因素。

背景概述

该数据集包含一项针对219对西班牙不孕夫妇（共438名参与者）的横断面研究，使用FertiQoL问卷和性别规范遵从度量表，旨在分析性别诊断和性别规范对生活质量的影响。研究发现，无论不孕诊断来源或性别规范遵从度如何，女性的自感生活质量均较低，提示女性身份是不孕心理社会后果的显著风险因素。
