Behavioral disorders among children reflect psychological problems of parents, as mental illness of either parent would increase the likelihood of mental disorder in the child. In view of the negative relationship between parents' and children's illness, the current study intended to determine the correlation between mental health of parents and behavioral disorders of pre-school children.
The present descriptive-correlational research studied 80 children registered at pre-school centers in Pardis Township, Tehran, Iran during 2014-2015 using convenience sampling. The research tools included General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) and Preschool Behavior Questionnaire (PBQ). The resulted data were analyzed using Pearson Product-moment Correlation Coefficient and regression analysis in SPSS 21.
The research results showed that there was a significant positive correlation between all dimensions of mental health of parents with general behavioral disorders (p<0.001). The results of the regression analysis showed that parents' depression was the first and the only predictive variable of behavioral disorders in children with 26.8% predictive strength.
Given the strong relationship between children's behavioral disorders and parents' general health, and the significant role of parents' depression in children's behavioral disorders, it seems necessary to take measures to decrease the impact of parents' disorders on children.
儿童行为障碍反映了父母的心理问题,因为父母任何一方的精神疾病都会增加孩子患精神障碍的可能性。鉴于父母与孩子疾病之间的负相关关系,本研究旨在确定父母心理健康与学龄前儿童行为障碍之间的相关性。
本描述性相关性研究于2014 - 2015年期间,采用便利抽样法对伊朗德黑兰帕尔迪斯镇学前中心登记的80名儿童进行了研究。研究工具包括一般健康问卷(GHQ)和学前行为问卷(PBQ)。使用SPSS 21软件中的Pearson积差相关系数和回归分析对所得数据进行分析。
研究结果表明,父母心理健康的所有维度与一般行为障碍之间存在显著正相关(p<0.001)。回归分析结果显示,父母的抑郁是儿童行为障碍的首要且唯一预测变量,预测强度为26.8%。
鉴于儿童行为障碍与父母总体健康之间的紧密关系,以及父母抑郁在儿童行为障碍中的重要作用,似乎有必要采取措施减少父母疾病对孩子的影响。
