The aim of this work was to examine family well-being in a sample of Spanish families with blind children. Sixty-one participants reported their perceived economic status, the level of job satisfaction, and state-anxiety symptoms. The participants of our study scored higher on state-anxiety and lower on material well-being than the normative sample, although these differences did not reach statistical significance. They also scored higher on job satisfaction and family satisfaction than the general population. A negative correlation was found between state-anxiety and material well-being (r = - 0.62, p = 0.001) and between state-anxiety and family satisfaction (r = - 0.57, p = 0.001). A positive correlation was found between material well-being and job satisfaction (r = 0.40, p = 0.001), and between material well-being and family satisfaction (r = 0.41, p = 0.001). Higher levels of material well-being, job satisfaction, and family satisfaction were associated with lower levels of anxiety in these families. However, no statistically significant correlation was found between family satisfaction and job satisfaction. Our results suggest that the family experience of having a disabled child is evolving, and this implies achieving greater job and family satisfaction than the normative samples, although anxiety scores continue to be higher and material well-being scores remain lower. On the whole, our results confirm that it is necessary to provide these families with more economic resources, which would have a positive impact on their subjective psychological well-being, decreasing their state-anxiety, and increasing their satisfaction with life.
这项工作的目的是在一个有盲童的西班牙家庭样本中考察家庭幸福状况。61名参与者报告了他们感知到的经济状况、工作满意度和状态焦虑症状。我们研究中的参与者在状态焦虑方面得分高于常模样本,在物质幸福方面得分低于常模样本,尽管这些差异未达到统计学显著性。他们在工作满意度和家庭满意度方面的得分也高于一般人群。在状态焦虑与物质幸福之间(r = - 0.62,p = 0.001)以及状态焦虑与家庭满意度之间(r = - 0.57,p = 0.001)发现了负相关。在物质幸福与工作满意度之间(r = 0.40,p = 0.001)以及物质幸福与家庭满意度之间(r = 0.41,p = 0.001)发现了正相关。在这些家庭中,较高水平的物质幸福、工作满意度和家庭满意度与较低水平的焦虑相关。然而,在家庭满意度和工作满意度之间未发现统计学上的显著相关性。我们的结果表明,有残疾儿童的家庭经历正在演变,这意味着与常模样本相比,能获得更高的工作和家庭满意度,尽管焦虑得分仍然较高,物质幸福得分仍然较低。总体而言,我们的结果证实有必要为这些家庭提供更多经济资源,这将对他们的主观心理健康产生积极影响,降低他们的状态焦虑,并提高他们对生活的满意度。
