目的
为了确定低收入社区的非裔美国母亲对新生儿未来的担忧。
设计
1994年春，在加利福尼亚州洛杉矶中南部康普顿卫生区的10个邮政编码中，对从出生证明记录中随机抽样的新生儿的母亲进行了一项访谈调查，低收入的非洲裔美国儿童高度集中。在522名符合条件的母亲中，有419人（80%）接受了采访。在采访时，儿童平均出生17.7天。
主要观察指标
《易经》云：“你最大的烦恼是什么？”“母亲们被要求给出一个以上的答案。答复分为16类。
结果
39%的母亲报告说害怕帮派，暴力，或两者兼而有之。其他最大的回答类别包括疾病，疾病和健康问题（17%）;毒品和酒精（15%）;在当地环境中成长（10%）;以及社会和世界（6%）。50%的男孩的母亲报告说害怕帮派，暴力，或者两者兼而有之，而女孩的母亲只有28%（P < .001）。
结论
超过一半的恐惧发生在医疗和公共卫生领域。有些涉及传统的健康问题（例如，疾病），而另一些是卫生专业人员最近一直在解决的问题（例如，暴力）。美国儿科学会建议为家庭提供有关预防暴力和预防火器伤害的咨询。虽然这项研究表明，许多母亲都关心这些问题，我们需要更好地了解医生在帮助他们的病人（和病人的家人）解决他们生活中的暴力问题时可以发挥什么作用。
OBJECTIVE
To determine what African American mothers in a low-income community fear for their newborn's future.
DESIGN
An interview survey was conducted with mothers of recently born infants randomly sampled from birth certificate records in the spring of 1994 in 10 postal codes in the Compton Health District in south central Los Angeles, Calif, with high concentrations of low-income African American children. Among 522 eligible mothers, 419 (80%) were interviewed. Children were an average of 17.7 days old at the time of the interview.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE
The open-ended survey item, "What is your biggest fear for [child's name] growing up?" Mothers were prompted to give more than 1 answer. Responses were classified into 16 categories.
RESULTS
Thirty-nine percent of the mothers reported a fear of gangs, violence, or both. The largest other response categories included disease, illness, and health problems (17%); drugs and alcohol (15%); growing up in the local environment (10%); and society and the world in general (6%). Fifty percent of the mothers of boys reported a fear of gangs, violence, or both compared with 28% of the mothers of girls (P < .001).
CONCLUSIONS
More than half the fears are in the medical and public health domains. Some involve traditional health concerns (e.g., disease), while others are problems that the health professions have been addressing more recently (e.g., violence). The American Academy of Pediatrics has recommended counseling families about violence prevention and the prevention of firearm injuries. While this study shows that many mothers are concerned about these subjects, we need a greater understanding of what role physicians can play in helping their patients (and their patients' families) address violence in their lives.
