Examined research on peer relations of children with chronic illness. In general, scant attention has been devoted to this topic. A recent review (La Greca, 1990) highlighted this oversight and suggested several avenues for further research and clinical endeavors. This paper updates the earlier review, and provides examples from current literature regarding the role of peer relations in adjustment to chronic disease. Data are presented from an ongoing investigation of the ways in which friends and family members provide support for adolescents with diabetes. Adolescents' friends were more oriented toward companionship support than were family members; both family and friends were reported to provide emotional support for diabetes care, although the types of emotional support varied. Findings are discussed in the context of the important and varied role that peers play in youngsters' disease adaptation.
审视了关于慢性病患儿同伴关系的研究。总体而言，该主题受到的关注较少。最近的一项综述（拉·格雷卡，1990年）强调了这一疏忽，并提出了几个进一步研究和临床实践的方向。本文更新了早期的综述，并提供了当前文献中关于同伴关系在慢性病适应中作用的例子。数据来自一项正在进行的调查，该调查研究了朋友和家庭成员为糖尿病青少年提供支持的方式。与家庭成员相比，青少年的朋友更倾向于提供陪伴支持；尽管情感支持的类型有所不同，但据报道，家人和朋友都为糖尿病护理提供情感支持。研究结果在同伴在青少年疾病适应中所起的重要且多样的作用这一背景下进行了讨论。
