This article examines the psychologic adjustment among 28 well siblings of children with chronic illness, ages 6 to 16, as measured by parents' rating on the Child Behavior Checklist. Results indicate that, as a group, well siblings do not experience a higher incidence of behavior and social competence problems than the normative sample. These data suggest that well siblings may not be uniformly at greater risk for maladjustment. Sibling adjustment may be selective and vary depending on specific child characteristics and family environment influences.
本文通过父母对儿童行为清单的评分，研究了28名6至16岁慢性病患儿的健康兄弟姐妹的心理调适情况。结果表明，作为一个群体，健康兄弟姐妹出现行为和社会能力问题的发生率并不高于正常样本。这些数据表明，健康兄弟姐妹并非一律面临更高的适应不良风险。兄弟姐妹的适应情况可能具有选择性，并因特定儿童特征和家庭环境影响而有所不同。
