BACKGROUND
The present study examined parental attributions for positive child behaviour in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and their association with parent outcomes.
METHOD
In total, 175 couples who had a child with ASD (5-12 years) completed measures about the child's positive behaviour, ASD symptoms, functional skills and negative behaviour problems, and their own positive and negative affect and closeness in the parent-child relationship. A comparison group of 170 couples who had a child without a neurodevelopmental disability also completed measures.
RESULTS
Dyadic multilevel models were conducted. Parents of children with ASD believed that their child's positive behaviour was due to factors less internal to the child, less stable and less controllable by the child than the comparison group. Beliefs about stability were associated with closeness in the parent-child relationship. Child age and level of impairment and parent education were associated with parental attributions.
CONCLUSIONS
Interventions that alter parental attributions may offer pathways to increase closeness in the parent-child relationship.
背景
本研究考察了自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）儿童家长对孩子积极行为的归因及其与家长结果的关联。
方法
共有175对育有一名5至12岁ASD儿童的夫妇完成了关于孩子积极行为、ASD症状、功能技能和消极行为问题的测量，以及他们自身的积极和消极情绪及亲子关系亲密度的测量。另一组由170对育有一名无神经发育障碍儿童的夫妇组成的对照组也完成了测量。
结果
进行了二元多层次模型分析。与对照组相比，ASD儿童的家长认为孩子的积极行为是由孩子内在因素较少、稳定性较低且孩子可控性较低的因素导致的。对稳定性的看法与亲子关系的亲密度相关。孩子的年龄、损伤程度和家长受教育程度与家长的归因有关。
结论
改变家长归因的干预措施可能为增进亲子关系亲密度提供途径。
