目的探讨青少年1型糖尿病父母教养方式及适应的人口学差异。方法采用自评和父母报告两种方式对青少年心理社会适应状况进行评估，并从青少年病历中获取临床资料。母亲-青少年二人组(N=93)参与了一项录像讨论任务，该任务被编码为观察到的育儿行为。结果单身母亲和非白人母亲表现出更多的过度介入和更少的合作育儿行为。过度参与的育儿水平越高，协作性育儿水平越低，青少年适应能力越差(即外化问题水平越高)。观察到的父母教养方式与血糖控制没有显著关联。婚姻状况和种族/民族对父母教养方式的外化行为有间接影响。结论目前的研究强调，育儿是一个潜在的干预目标，特别是在单身和少数族裔母亲中，以改善这一人群的适应能力。
Objective To examine demographic differences in parenting behaviors and adjustment in youth with type 1 diabetes. Methods Adolescents' psychosocial adjustment was assessed via self-reports and parent reports, and clinical data were obtained from adolescents' medical records. Mother-adolescent dyads (N = 93) engaged in a videotaped discussion task, which was coded for observed parenting behaviors. Results Single and non-White mothers exhibited significantly more overinvolved and less collaborative parenting behaviors. Higher levels of overinvolved parenting and lower levels of collaborative parenting were associated with poorer adolescent adjustment (i.e., higher levels of externalizing problems). Observed parenting was not significantly associated with glycemic control. There was an indirect effect of marital status and race/ethnicity on externalizing behaviors through parenting. Conclusions The current study highlights parenting as a potential target for interventions, especially in single and minority mothers, to improve adjustment in this population.
