本研究探讨了父母和孩子对儿童易患病性的看法之间的一致性。虽然对脆弱性的极端看法，如脆弱儿童综合症，被描述为父母与子女关系的障碍，但儿童与健康有关的认知并没有作为这一过程的一部分加以审查。采用访谈法和问卷调查法对47名学龄前儿童及其家长的健康自我知觉进行了评价。易受伤害儿童综合征的风险因素预测了父母对脆弱性的看法，但对儿童则不然。关于儿童易受疾病影响程度的一致性很高，只是父母将其归类为相对于同龄人更易受伤害的儿童中只有三分之一以这种方式归类。结果表明，儿童的健康状况的看法，应纳入治疗工作与家庭中的儿童被认为是医疗脆弱。
This study examined the agreement between parents' and children's perceptions of children's vulnerability to illness. While extreme perceptions of vulnerability, such as vulnerable child syndrome, are described as disorders of the parent-child relationship, children's health-related cognitions have not been examined as part of this process. The self-perceptions of health of 47 pre-school-aged children and their parents were evaluated through an interview and a survey respectively. Risk factors for vulnerable child syndrome predicted elevated perceptions of vulnerability for parents but not for children. Agreement on the child's level of vulnerability to illness was high, except that only one-third of the children whose parents classified them as more vulnerable relative to their peers classified themselves in this way. The results suggest that children's perceptions of their health status should be incorporated into therapeutic work with families in which children are perceived as medically vulnerable.
