Although fathers' stress has been shown to have important implications for children's health and well-being, few studies of children with Type 1 diabetes have considered paternal parenting stress. The current study contributes to the literature by exploring correlates of fathers' pediatric parenting stress in a sample of young children with Type 1 diabetes. Forty-three fathers of children 2-6 years old with Type 1 diabetes completed self-report questionnaires examining pediatric parenting stress, child behavior, participation in diabetes management tasks, and parental psychological resources. Results of multiple regression show that fathers' pediatric parenting stress is positively associated with state anxiety and mother-reported difficult child behavior. These findings suggest that fathers may experience parenting stress differently than mothers, and that their experiences may have implications not only for their own level of anxiety, but also for their children's behavior.
尽管父亲的压力已被证明对孩子的健康和幸福有重要影响，但很少有关于1型糖尿病儿童的研究考虑到父亲的育儿压力。本研究通过在一组1型糖尿病幼儿样本中探索父亲的儿科育儿压力的相关因素，为该领域文献做出了贡献。43名2至6岁1型糖尿病儿童的父亲完成了自我报告问卷，调查内容包括儿科育儿压力、孩子的行为、参与糖尿病管理任务的情况以及父母的心理资源。多元回归结果表明，父亲的儿科育儿压力与状态焦虑以及母亲报告的孩子难养行为呈正相关。这些发现表明，父亲可能与母亲经历不同的育儿压力，而且他们的经历不仅可能影响自身的焦虑水平，还可能影响孩子的行为。
