本研究评估了133名母亲和93名父亲的个性风格、态度、观点和应对策略,这些孩子有糖尿病、哮喘、肝纤维化和听力障碍。通过测量,基本的积极调整水平和样本的特殊问题都得到了证明,这样他们就形成了一个独特的群体,其功能落在“正常的或调整不良的父母”之间。此外,患病儿童的存在是这些模式的主要贡献者,疾病类型为其确切程度和范围提供了次要但重要的推动力。母亲总是比父亲报告更多的问题和更多的参与,这说明了他们在这些特定家庭中的不同角色,以及他们对患病儿童压力的典型反应模式。毫无疑问,压力对父母造成了伤害。即使他们仍然设法应付,在对身体有病的孩子的全面管理计划中,关注父母的需求是必要的。
The present study assessed the personality styles, attitudes, perspectives, and coping strategies of 133 mothers and 93 fathers of diabetic, asthmatic, crystic fibrotic, and hearing-impaired children. Across measures, both the essential positive adjustment levels and special problems of the sample were demonstrated, such that they formed a distinct group whose functioning fell between that reported for either “normalℍ or poorly-adjusted parents. Furthermore, the presence of the ill child served as the primary contributor to these patterns, with types of illness providing a secondary but significant thrust to its exact extent and scope. Mothers consistently reported more problems and more involvement than fathers, which illustrated their differential roles within these particular families as well as their typical modes of response to the stress of the ill child. Without a doubt, the stress was taking its toll on the parents. Even though they still managed to cope, a focus on the parental needs is necessary in the total management program for the physically ill child.
