目的：本研究采用具有全国代表性的父母失业的青少年样本，研究了哪些因素（社会人口统计学和对家庭生活和同龄人的满意度）与父母失业对情绪健康的负面影响有关。研究设计：横断面调查研究。方法：葡萄牙学龄儿童健康行为研究提供了至少有一方父母失业的青少年（14.1 +/- 1.7岁）的数据（n = 1311, 53.2%为女孩）。描述性统计和逻辑回归分析。结果：较高比例的青少年报告受到父亲失业的情感影响，但不受母亲失业的影响。年龄较大的男孩和女孩更有可能报告说，他们的同性父母的失业状况（儿子-父亲和女儿-母亲）对他们的幸福产生了负面影响。社会经济地位低、家庭满意度低的女孩更有可能报告与父母失业相关的负面情绪幸福感。结论：本研究为父母失业状况对青少年情绪幸福感的影响提供了证据。鉴于经济衰退的背景和高失业率，这些见解有助于设计一项行动，以提高来自失业家庭的葡萄牙青少年的福利水平。(C) 2016年皇家公共卫生学会。Elsevier Ltd.出版。版权所有。
Objectives: Using a national representative sample of adolescents with unemployed parents, this study examined which factors (sociodemographic and of satisfaction with family life and peers) are related to the negative effect of parents' unemployment on emotional well-being.Study design: Cross-sectional survey study.Methods: Data on adolescents (14.1 +/- 1.7 years old), with at least one parent unemployed (n = 1311, 53.2% girls), was provided by the Portuguese Health Behaviour in School-aged Children study. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression analyses were performed.Results: A high proportion of adolescents reported being emotionally affected by father's unemployment but not by their mother's. Older boys and older girls were more likely to report that their same-gender parent's unemployment situation (sons-fathers and daughters-mothers) has had a negative effect on their well-being. Girls from low socioeconomic status and with poor family satisfaction were more likely to report negative emotional well-being related to parental unemployment.Conclusions: This study presents evidence on factors that can shape adolescents' emotional well-being related to parents' unemployment situation. Given the recessionary context and high unemployment rates, these insights are valuable to assist the design of an action to improve the levels of well-being of Portuguese adolescents from unemployed families.
