儿童脑肿瘤幸存者的神经认知问题有很好的文献记载。此外，研究表明，认知功能问题可能与应对压力所需的复杂策略的使用受损有关，包括次要控制应对策略（如接受和认知重新评估），这些策略与较少的适应问题有关。本研究测量了6-16岁儿童在脑肿瘤诊断时的认知功能、应对策略和适应能力，以及在诊断后1年的两个随访时间点。在前瞻性设计中，共对29例儿童脑肿瘤患者进行手术前的工作记忆评估，在诊断后6个月评估儿童自我报告的应对能力，在诊断后12个月评估父母报告的儿童适应能力。工作记忆困难与二次控制应对存在显著相关。二级控制应对与儿童注意力和总问题呈负相关。回归分析不支持二级控制应对在工作记忆困难与儿童注意力或整体问题之间的中介作用。这些发现首次对儿童脑肿瘤诊断第一年的工作记忆、应对和调整之间的关系进行了纵向评估，并为早期干预解决脑肿瘤儿童的工作记忆困难和应对提出了可能的作用。
Neurocognitive problems in childhood survivors of brain tumors are well documented. Further, research has shown that problems in cognitive functioning may be associated with impairment in the use of complex strategies needed to cope with stress, including secondary control coping strategies (e.g., acceptance and cognitive reappraisal) which have been associated with fewer adjustment problems. The present study measured cognitive function, coping strategies, and adjustment in children ages 6–16 years at the time of brain tumor diagnosis and at two follow-up time-points up to 1 year post-diagnosis. In a prospective design, working memory was assessed in a total of 29 pediatric brain tumor patients prior to undergoing surgery, child self-reported coping was assessed at 6 months post-diagnosis, and parent-reported child adjustment was assessed at 12 months post-diagnosis. Significant correlations were found between working memory difficulties and secondary control coping. Secondary control coping was also negatively correlated with child attention and total problems. Regression analyses did not support secondary control coping mediating the association between working memory difficulties and child attention or total problems. These findings represent the first longitudinal assessment of the association between working memory, coping, and adjustment across the first year of a child’s brain tumor diagnosis and suggest a possible role for early interventions addressing both working memory difficulties and coping in children with brain tumors.
