OBJECTIVE
To examine how one aspect of family life, notably family rituals and routines, may protect children with asthma from anxiety-related symptoms.
METHODS
Eighty-six families (43 children with asthma, 43 healthy comparison children) participated in the study. Children completed measures of anxiety (Revised Child Manifest Anxiety Scale) and health. Parents completed measures of stress (Parenting Stress Index), family rituals (Family Routines Questionnaire), and family health.
RESULTS
Families that reported more meaning in their family routines had children who reported lower levels of anxiety. Mother endorsement of family ritual meaning and father endorsement of family ritual routine were most strongly related to lower levels of anxiety. Support for the protective function of meaningful family rituals was stronger when a general health stress model was used rather than the presence or absence of asthma alone.
CONCLUSIONS
Family rituals may serve a protective function for children with asthma under conditions of heightened parenting stress.
目的
探讨家庭生活的一个方面，即家庭仪式和日常活动，如何保护哮喘儿童免受焦虑相关症状的影响。
方法
86个家庭（43名哮喘儿童，43名健康对照儿童）参与了该研究。儿童完成焦虑测量（修订版儿童显性焦虑量表）和健康测量。父母完成压力测量（养育压力指数）、家庭仪式测量（家庭日常活动问卷）和家庭健康测量。
结果
报告家庭日常活动更有意义的家庭，其孩子报告的焦虑水平较低。母亲对家庭仪式意义的认可和父亲对家庭仪式日常活动的认可与较低的焦虑水平关系最为密切。当使用一般健康压力模型而非仅考虑是否患有哮喘时，对有意义的家庭仪式的保护作用的支持更强。
结论
在养育压力增加的情况下，家庭仪式可能对哮喘儿童起到保护作用。
