OBJECTIVE
This study examined differences in psychosocial and family functioning between Latino and non-Latino Caucasian youth with spina bifida (SB), and examined family functioning as a predictor of youth psychosocial functioning as moderated by ethnicity.
METHODS
Participants were part of a larger, longitudinal study (Devine, Holbein, Psihogios, Amaro, & Holmbeck, 2012) and included 74 non-Latino Caucasian youth with SB and 39 Latino youth with SB (M age = 11.53, 52.2% female). Data were collected at Time 1 and 2 years later, and included questionnaire and observational data of psychosocial and family functioning.
RESULTS
Latino youth demonstrated fewer externalizing symptoms, less family conflict, but also less social competence. Family conflict was associated with psychosocial functioning in Latino youth, while family cohesion, conflict, and stress were associated with psychosocial functioning in non-Latino Caucasian youth.
CONCLUSIONS
Psychosocial and family functioning, and their relationship over time, may be different in Latino versus Caucasian youth with SB.
目的
本研究考察了患有脊柱裂（SB）的拉丁裔和非拉丁裔白种青年在心理社会和家庭功能方面的差异，并考察了家庭功能作为一个预测因素，其对青年心理社会功能的影响受到族裔的调节。
方法
参与者是一个更大的纵向研究（Devine、Holbein、Psihogios、Amaro 和 Holmbeck，2012）的一部分，包括 74 名非拉丁裔白种青年和 39 名拉丁裔青年（平均年龄=11.53，52.2%为女性）。数据是在第 1 次和 2 年后收集的，包括心理社会和家庭功能的问卷调查和观察数据。
结果
拉丁裔青年表现出较少的外化症状，较少的家庭冲突，但也较少的社会能力。家庭冲突与拉丁裔青年的心理社会功能有关，而家庭凝聚力、冲突和压力与非拉丁裔白种青年的心理社会功能有关。
结论
患有脊柱裂的拉丁裔和白种青年在心理社会和家庭功能方面，以及他们随时间变化的关系，可能存在差异。
