This longitudinal study examined the relative impact of major variables for predicting adjustment (in terms of both grief and depression) among bereaved parents following the death of their child. Couples (N = 219) participated 6, 13, and 20 months postloss. Use of multilevel regression analyses enabled assessment of the impact of several predictors and facilitated analysis of factors that were either shared by parents or individual. Grief was predicted mainly by shared parent factors: child's age, cause and unexpectedness of death, and number of remaining children. By contrast, depression was predicted by individual parent factors: gender, religious affiliation, and professional help seeking. Theoretical implications of these findings are discussed.

Conducted 2 studies investigating the impact of 2 types of potential crisis-producing experiences on the referral patterns of maladapting 5-10 yr old school children: parental separation and divorce and parental death. Ss in Study 1 were 108 children with a history of parental separation or divorce and 32 with a history of parent death. Study 2 used 226 Ss, 188 with separation-divorce histories and 38 with parental death histories. Both "crisis" groups were compared first to demographically matched referred controls, without crisis histories, and then directly to each other. Each crisis group had a significantly higher overall maladjustment score than its respective control group. Ss with histories of parent death were significantly more anxious, depressed, and withdrawn than their matched controls; whereas separation-divorce Ss had significantly more aggression and acting-out problems than their controls. These effects remained (a) when initial maladjustment differences were ruled out and (b) in a direct comparison of matched death and divorce Ss. The association between specific crisis history and specific school maladjustment patterns is seen to have implications for early detection and preventive efforts.

Evaluated 24 children between the ages of 8 and 16 yrs who experienced the death or loss of a parent during infancy, early childhood, or latency. Each was referred for psychological evaluation because of manifested school dysfunctions. Feelings of abandonment and depression were 2 major symptoms, either expressed or felt by the Ss. Their yearning for the lost object who abandoned them, through death, appeared to persist throughout their early life. Findings suggest that the death or loss of a parent in early infancy, latency, or adolescence, is a traumatic event on the personality development and functioning of the child. Treatment approaches that are needed with this population are considered. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) 相似文献

Does the homosexuality of parents affect the sexual orientation or experiences of their children? Seventeen of 5,182 randomly obtained adults from six U.S. cities answered questionnaires indicating that they had a homosexual parent. Parental homosexuality may be related to findings that: (1) 5 of the 17 reported sexual relations with their parents; (2) a disproportionate fraction reported sexual relations with other caretakers and relatives; and (3) a disproportionate fraction: (a) claimed a less than exclusively heterosexual orientation (47%); (b) indicated gender dissatisfaction; and (c) reported that their first sexual experience was homosexual. Of 1,388 consecutive obituaries in a major homosexual newspaper, 87 of the gays who died had children and registered a median age of death of 47 (the 1,267 without children had a median age of death of 38); 10 lesbians did and 24 did not have children. We estimate that less than 1% of parents are bisexual or homosexual and that < 7% of gays and about a third of lesbians are parents. 相似文献

The Incredible Years (IY) Series includes separate group interventions to improve parenting interactions, teacher classroom management, and child social-emotional regulation. Although originally developed to treat early onset conduct problems, IY targets many of the proposed mechanisms and risk factors for internalizing distress in early childhood. Prior studies have demonstrated the effects of the IY parent intervention on co-occurring depressive symptoms. We attempted to extend these findings by examining the unique and combined effects of IY interventions on children's co-occurring internalizing symptoms. One-hundred and fifty-nine families with children ages 4- to 8-years-old were randomly assigned to parent training (PT); parent plus teacher training (PT + TT); child training (CT); child plus teacher training (CT + TT); parent, child, plus teacher training (PT + CT + TT); or a waiting list control group. Children who received any of the intervention components were more likely to have lower mother-rated internalizing symptoms at posttreatment compared to children in a wait-list control group. Implications for future research and for designing interventions and prevention strategies for children with internalizing symptoms are discussed.

Structural differences in parent and child reports of children's symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Two cohorts of public elementary school children and their parents (assessed 3 years apart) completed child and parent forms of the Children's Depression Inventory (CDI) and the Revised Children's Manifest Anxiety Scale (RCMAS). Assessments were conducted twice, once during the fall (N?=?562) and again during the spring (N?=?630) of the 6th grade. Factor analyses revealed 3 factors for each measure. Two of the 3 parent CDI factors manifested some degree of congruence with their counterparts from the child CDI. Similarly, 2 of the 3 RCMAS factors were somewhat congruent across informant types. Differences between parent and child factor structures suggest that parents' and children's reports focus on somewhat different aspects of child psychopathology, and they can make qualitatively different contributions to the multiaxial assessment of children.

Explored long-term family adjustment to sudden, unexpected bereavement by conducting interviews with 40 Ss whose spouse died in a motor vehicle crash 4–7 yrs earlier and with 39 matched controls. Interviews were also conducted with 54 parents whose 1–28 yr old child died in a motor vehicle crash 4–7 yrs earlier and with 61 matched controls. Findings indicate that marital relationships generally strengthened or dissolved after a child's death. Most bereaved adults reported feeling closer to their children after the loss of a family member. Parental reports suggest that the death of a parent or sibling is overwhelmingly negative for children, and extremely so for a significant percentage.

Examined child, parent, and family factors that predict dropping out from therapy among children (ages 4–13 yrs) referred for the treatment of oppositional, aggressive, and antisocial behavior. It was proposed that factors predicting attrition would vary as a function of whether families dropped out early or late in treatment. Several factors related to family (e.g., socioeconomic disadvantage, adverse child-rearing practices), parent (e.g., stress, life events, history of antisocial behavior), and child functioning (e.g., severity and chronicity of antisocial behavior, lower IQ, peer relations) predicted premature termination from treatment. A different pattern was evident in the factors predicting early and late termination from therapy. Findings have implications for conceptualizing the process of engaging and retaining families in treatment and for preventing premature termination.

Very low birth weight (VLBW) children at school age show variability in their outcome, compared with normal birth weight children, although many early physical and health differences are equalized by middle childhood. Studies of nonhandicapped VLBW children have found a higher rate of school retention and school problems in this population. Differences in intelligence have been reported, although these are often confounded by socioeconomic factors such as educational level of the parent. Few studies today of children born in the late 1970s and early 1980s have related school age outcome to central nervous system (CNS) status, yet for learning disabilities or other neuropsychological deficits, this may be highly relevant. Better understanding of medical risk factors, however, will not affect the decisive influence of social factors on their expression in the school age child. 相似文献

The authors combined a multilevel model of parental context with a multidimensional conceptualization of parent involvement to examine the factors influencing parents' involvement in their children's schooling. Three sets of factors were identified: parent and child characteristics, family context, and teacher behavior and attitudes. A diverse sample of 209 mothers, their 3rd–5th grade children, and 28 teachers participated. Parents, teachers, and children reported on 3 types of involvement: school, cognitive, and personal. Mothers who felt efficacious, who saw their roles as that of teacher, and who viewed their children as less difficult were more involved in cognitive activities. A difficult context, social support, and teacher attitudes and practices were associated with both school and personal involvement, though some of these relations were moderated by gender with contextual factors affecting involvement of mothers of boys and classroom factors affecting those of girls. The importance of a multilevel approach to increasing parent involvement is discussed. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) 相似文献

The children-of-twins design was used to isolate a potentially causal environmental impact of having an alcoholic parent on offspring alcohol use disorder, by an examination of whether the children of alcoholics were at a higher risk for alcohol use disorders than were the children of nonalcoholic parents, even after correlated familial factors were controlled. Participants were 1,224 male and female twins from 836 twin pairs selected from the Australian Twin Registry, 2,334 of the twins' 18-39-year-old offspring, and 983 spouses of the twins. Lifetime histories of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th ed.) alcohol use disorders were obtained by structured, psychiatric, telephone interviews conducted individually with each of the family members. Comparisons of the offspring of twins who were discordant for alcoholism indicated that there was no longer a statistically significant difference between the children of alcoholics and the children of nonalcoholics after genetic and family environmental factors correlated with having an alcoholic parent were controlled. The results of this study suggest that the direct causal effect of being exposed to an alcoholic parent on offspring alcohol use disorder is modest at best.

The present study investigated parent and child factors that predict outcome in a filial therapy program for parents (N = 27) and young children (ages 2–10). Higher levels of parent distress and poorer child regulation of emotion at pretest were predictive of greater reductions in child behavior problems; poorer parent regulation of emotion at pretest was predictive of greater increases in parent acceptance; and less parent satisfaction with social support from family and friends at pretest was predictive of greater increases in parent communication of acceptance in parent–child play. Implications and directions for future research are discussed. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2011 APA, all rights reserved) 相似文献

Approximately 1.7 million children have parents who are incarcerated in prison in the United States, and possibly millions of additional children have a parent incarcerated in jail. Many affected children experience increased risk for developing behavior problems, academic failure, and substance abuse. For a growing number of children, incarcerated parents, caregivers, and professionals, parent–child contact during the imprisonment period is a key issue. In this article, we present a conceptual model to provide a framework within which to interpret findings about parent–child contact when parents are incarcerated. We then summarize recent research examining parent–child contact in context. On the basis of the research reviewed, we present initial recommendations for children's contact with incarcerated parents and also suggest areas for future intervention and research with this vulnerable population.

The purpose of this study was to test a strength-of-association model regarding possible longitudinal and bidirectional associations between parent functioning and child adjustment in families of children with spina bifida (n = 68) and families of able-bodied children (n = 68). Parent functioning was assessed across 3 domains: parenting stress, individual psychosocial adjustment, and marital satisfaction. Child adjustment was indexed by teacher-reported internalizing and externalizing symptoms, self-reported depressive symptoms, and observed adaptive behavior. Findings revealed that all 3 parent functioning variables predicted child adjustment outcomes, and that such results were particularly strong for externalizing symptoms. Associations between parent functioning and child adjustment tended to be in the direction of parent to child and were similar across both groups. These findings have implications for potential interventions targeted at helping families manage the transition into early adolescence in families of children with spina bifida as well as families of healthy children.

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) frequently co-occur. Comorbidity of these 2 childhood disruptive behavior domains has not been satisfactorily explained at either a structural or etiological level. The current study evaluated a bifactor model, which allows for a “g” factor in addition to distinct component factors, in relation to other models to improve understanding of the structural relationship between ADHD and ODD. Participants were 548 children (321 boys, 227 girls) between the ages of 6 years and 18 years who participated in a comprehensive diagnostic assessment incorporating parent and teacher ratings of symptoms. Of these 548 children, 153 children were diagnosed with ADHD (without ODD), 114 children were diagnosed with ADHD + ODD, 26 children were diagnosed with ODD (without ADHD), and 239 children were classified as non-ADHD/ODD comparison children (including subthreshold cases). ADHD symptoms were assessed via parent report on a diagnostic interview and via parent and teacher report on the ADHD Rating Scale. ODD symptoms were assessed via teacher report. A bifactor model of disruptive behavior, comprising a “g” factor and the specific factors of ADHD and ODD, exhibited best fit, compared to 1-factor, 2-factor, 3-factor, and 2nd-order factor models of disruptive behaviors. It is concluded that a bifactor model of childhood disruptive behaviors is superior to existing models and may help explain common patterns of comorbidity between ADHD and ODD.

To identify risk factors associated with death in traumatized children, we prospectively studied 507 consecutive patients (7+/-4 yr) admitted to a level I pediatric trauma center over a 3-yr period. Pediatric Trauma Score (PTS), Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, and Injury Severity Score (ISS) were calculated. Age, injury mechanism, injury pattern, and initial critical care were recorded. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed for potential risk factors associated with mortality. Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to determine threshold values of variables identified by univariate analysis. Most children suffered from blunt trauma (99.6%), and head trauma was noted in 85%. Median values (range) of GCS scores, PTS, and ISS were 10 (3-15), 7 (-4 to 12), and 16 (3-75), respectively. The mortality rate was 12%. Using multivariate analysis, death was significantly associated with an ISS > or = 25 (odds ratio [OR] 22.2, 95% confidence interval 2.8-174.9), GCS score < or = 7 (OR 4.77, 1.8-12.7), emergency blood transfusion > or = 20 mL/kg (OR 4.3, 2.1-9.1), and PTS < or = 4 (OR 3.7, 1.4-9.7). An ISS > or = 25, GCS score < or = 7, immediate blood transfusion > or = 20 mL/kg, and PTS < or = 4 were significant and independent risk factors of death in an homogenous population of severely injured children. The probability of traumatic death was therefore 0 (95% confidence interval 0-0.0135) in children with no one of these threshold values in the four predictive factors and 0.63 (95% confidence interval 0.47-0.76) in those children with all the threshold values. IMPLICATIONS: Methods used for evaluating outcome of trauma patients have essentially been derived from adult series, and attempts to apply them to children have usually been inaccurate. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify risk factors associated with death in severely traumatized children, and Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to determine threshold values. 相似文献

The purpose of this special issue was to examine the scientific base that supports the use of parent and family interventions that are implemented in schools or coordinated with school settings, and to demonstrate a change in the school-related behaviors and learning problems of children and youth. Reviews have been conducted in the six sub-domains: parent education, parent involvement, parent consultation, family-school collaboration/partnership, family systems therapy and parent training, and early childhood family-focused interventions. To our knowledge this is the first time standard criteria have been applied across these subdomains to examine the empirical base for the broader family and parent intervention domain. From this review, it would be erroneous to conclude that there is no evidence for the use of parent and family interventions as methods for changing the school-related behavior and learning problems of children and youth. From this review, it is evident that parent and family interventions are multidimensional. In this review, we asked the question, "Do we find evidence that parent and family interventions change children's behavior and learning at school?" Our answer is "yes, but."

AIMS: This paper examined factors relating to the infants' place of domicile to see whether they increased the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) beyond social and environmental effects previously published. METHODS: A case control study was undertaken in New Zealand between the years 1987-90. From all sudden infant death syndrome diagnoses over this time, parents of 393 (81%) sudden infant death syndrome infants consented to participate and these derive the cases. Controls were ascertained by randomly sampling 1800 infants from all babies born over 78% of the country. Parents of 1592 (88%) control infants consented to participate in the study. RESULTS: The relative risk of sudden infant death for infants usually residing in houses rented from the government (State houses) was 1.73 (95% CI: 1.13, 2.66) times that of infants with parents owning their house, after adjusting for likely social, economic and environmental confounding factors. However, the type of housing, construction of housing, heating and age of housing was not associated with sudden infant death syndrome. Although house size, measured in terms of bedroom numbers, was similar for sudden infant death syndrome and control infants (chi 2 = 0.40, df = 2, p = 0.82), the number of people normally residing within these houses was different. Sudden infant death syndrome infants' houses were less likely to have two adults and more likely to have more children normally resident. Density calculations (derived by calculating the children and/or adult numbers divided by bedroom numbers) revealed a non significant increase in relative risk, suggesting that housing overcrowding was not associated with sudden infant death syndrome in New Zealand. CONCLUSIONS: Infants domiciled in State houses are more likely to experience sudden infant death syndrome. However, this increased relative risk for sudden infant death syndrome appears to have little to do with the house per se and, perhaps, more to do with socioeconomic characteristics. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: There were two main objectives of the study: (1) To assess the effectiveness of a model of family reunification which united the role of parent aide and foster parent; and (2) to determine which characteristics of the families with children in care were associated with reunification. METHOD: A multisite project known as the Shared Parenting Project recruited families from five child protection agencies to participate in a program in which foster parents became extended rather than substitute families. Families were tested before the program began on a number of sociodemographic, psychological, and family measures. The success of the program was determined by whether the child was able to return home of if the program facilitated permanency planning. The success of the project was also examined by considering the relationship between returning home and a number of risk factors measured in the families with children in care. RESULTS: Very few families who met the criteria for the project could be recruited and only 31% of the participants completed the program and returned home. The process of permanency planning was facilitated in another 50% of the cases. The more stable families with less risk factors were more likely to complete the program successfully and to have their children return home. CONCLUSIONS: The results indicate that although the treatment model has excellent potential with less at-risk families it could not meet the treatment needs of the majority of families with children in foster care in the five child protection agencies. It is recommended that this model could be most helpful offered through parent aides attached to community support agencies that could provide respite care, support, and resources to families as needed thus avoiding the child having to be placed in care. 相似文献

Forty matched healthy Latino and non-Latino siblings (ages 8-14 years) of children with developmental and physical disabilities completed interviews and questionnaires assessing sibling knowledge of and adjustment to disability and sibling global psychological functioning. One-way analyses of variance revealed Latino siblings to have significantly less accurate information about the disability and more internalizing problems than non-Latino siblings. Sibling and parent wishes for the healthy sibling reflected cultural values. The results indicate that Latino siblings of children with chronic disabilities may be at risk for internalizing psychological problems. Future research regarding cultural factors affecting sibling adaptation to childhood disability is encouraged. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) 相似文献
