本研究探讨了阿斯伯格综合征患儿家长对意义的两种理解——发现益处和寻求意义的本质，并考察了这两种意义构建与双重ABCX家庭压力模型变量（初始压力源和需求累积、评估、社会支持、应对策略和适应）之间的关系[H.I.麦卡宾，J.M.帕特森，《社会压力与家庭：家庭压力理论与研究的进展》，霍沃思出版社，纽约，1983年，第7 - 37页]。共有59名家长完成了问卷调查。对家长针对有关收获和寻求意义解释的问题所做回答进行的内容分析揭示了8个发现益处的主题和12个寻求意义的主题。相关性结果表明，一个或多个意义变量与父母适应的双重ABCX模型的每个预测因素都相关。意义变量与适应性应对过程呈正相关，这些应对过程包括：社会支持、自我效能以及以问题为中心和情感导向的应对策略。（C）2004爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
This study explored the nature of two construals of meaning, benefit finding and sense making, in parents of a child with Asperger syndrome, and examined relations between both meaning constructs and the Double ABCX family stress model variables (initial stressor and pile-up of demands, appraisal, social support, coping strategies and adjustment) [H.I. McCubbin, J.M. Patterson, Social Stress and the Family: Advances and Developments in Family Stress Theory and Research, Haworth, New York, 1983, pp. 7-37]. A total of 59 parents completed questionnaires. Content analyses of parents' responses to questions inquiring about gains and sense making explanations revealed 8 benefit and 12 sense making themes. Results of correlations indicated that one or more of the meaning variables were related to each of the Double ABCX model predictors of parental adjustment. The meaning variables were positively related to adaptive coping processes: social support, self-efficacy, and problem-focused and emotional approach coping strategies. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
