学校的纪律问题可能会影响家长对孩子需要心理保健的看法。本文探讨了孩子第一次停学或开除对三个种族亚群体中家长对孩子服务需求的看法的影响。受试者是参加全国纵向研究的母亲及其孩子。首次学校停课或开除对非西班牙裔白人儿童的服务使用和家长报告的服务需求产生了积极影响，但对非裔美国人和西班牙裔儿童影响很小或没有影响。这些结果表明，教师和学校管理人员向家长提供的有关儿童行为的信息可以影响家长对儿童服务需求的看法，但家长对此信息的解释和反应可能存在种族差异。向家长传达有关儿童服务需求的信息的文化上适当的方法可能有助于减少这些差异。
Disciplinary problems at school potentially affect parent perception of child need for mental health care. This article explores effects of a child's first school suspension or expulsion on parent perception of child need for services in three racial–ethnic subgroups. Subjects were mothers participating in a national longitudinal study and their children. First-time school suspension or expulsion positively affected service use and parent-reported service need among white non-Hispanic children, but had little or no effect for African American and Hispanic children. These results suggest that information on child behavior provided to parents by teachers and school administrators can influence parent perception of child service need, but that racial–ethnic differences may exist in parent interpretation of and response to this information. Culturally appropriate approaches to relaying information to parents about child service need may help reduce these differences.
