INTRODUCTION
Despite growing interest in the links between sociocontextual factors and children's behavioral functioning, few studies have investigated how such factors, in combination, relate to health outcomes or vary across mental and physical well-being. We evaluated the direct and interactive associations of parental attachment and household chaos with preschool-age children's mental and physical health.
METHOD
Ninety-four parents completed questionnaires about their attachment styles, disorganization and confusion in the home, and their children's health functioning.
RESULTS
Attachment avoidance and anxiety in parents predicted poorer mental health in children, particularly in highly chaotic homes. Moreover, parental attachment anxiety, but not avoidance, predicted poorer reported physical health in children and, in conjunction with chaotic homes, more hospitalizations.
DISCUSSION
The results help illuminate how multiple domains in children's immediate environment jointly influence their physical and mental health and how these influences may vary across domains of functioning. Findings have implications for targeting interventions to have impact across facets of children's health. (PsycINFO Database Record
引言
尽管社会环境因素与儿童行为功能之间的联系越来越受到关注，但很少有研究调查这些因素如何综合影响健康结果，或者在心理健康和身体健康方面有何差异。我们评估了父母依恋和家庭混乱对学龄前儿童心理和身体健康的直接及交互作用。
方法
94位家长完成了关于他们的依恋风格、家庭中的无序和混乱以及孩子健康状况的问卷调查。
结果
父母的回避型依恋和焦虑型依恋预示着孩子较差的心理健康，尤其是在高度混乱的家庭中。此外，父母的焦虑型依恋而非回避型依恋预示着孩子较差的身体健康状况，并且与混乱的家庭环境相结合时，预示着更多的住院情况。
讨论
研究结果有助于阐明儿童直接环境中的多个领域如何共同影响他们的身心健康，以及这些影响在不同功能领域可能存在的差异。研究结果对于针对儿童健康各个方面进行干预具有启示意义。（《心理学文摘数据库记录》 ）
