这项研究调查了61名6至11岁的艾滋病毒感染儿童的心理困扰程度。三个领域的儿童心理困扰的照顾者和儿童报告：分离焦虑，广泛性焦虑和抑郁。同时收集照顾者心理困扰的相关资料。进行分层多元回归分析以检验以下假设：照顾者心理困扰将导致儿童心理困扰的显着差异，超出人口统计学和疾病变量的影响。这一假设仅在照顾者报告儿童心理困扰时得到证实。孩子对自己的诊断的了解影响了父母和孩子对孩子心理困扰的报告。
This study examined the level of psychological distress in 61 children with HIV ages 6 to 11. Three domains of child psychological distress were measured by both caregiver and child report: separation anxiety, generalized anxiety, and depression. Information about caregiver's psychological distress was also collected. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses were conducted to test the hypothesis that caregiver psychological distress would account for significant variance in child psychological distress beyond that accounted for by demographic and disease variables. This hypothesis was confirmed only for the caregiver's report of the child's psychological distress. The child's knowledge of his or her diagnosis affected both parent and child reports of the child's psychological distress.
