110名自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）儿童的母亲接受了儿童和青少年影响评估，当他们的孩子大约9岁时。回归分析显示，非裔美国人的母亲报告的水平较低，认为有一个孩子与自闭症谱系障碍的负面影响比白人母亲。自闭症诊断访谈修订版的重复行为得分较高，Vineland适应行为量表的适应行为得分较低，以及感知的社会支持较少也是感知负面影响较高的重要预测因素。确定预期负面影响的预测因素是设计干预措施以支持可能面临更高压力风险的家庭和目标父母的重要第一步。
Mothers of 110 children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) were interviewed with the Child and Adolescent Impact Assessment when their children were approximately 9 years old. Regression analyses revealed that African American mothers reported lower levels of perceived negative impact of having a child with ASD than did Caucasian mothers. Higher repetitive behavior scores on the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised, lower adaptive behavior scores on the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, and less perceived social support were also significant predictors of higher perceived negative impact. Identifying predictors of perceived negative impact is an important first step in designing interventions to support families and target parents who may be at risk for experiencing higher levels of stress.
