This study aimed to evaluate the stress levels of caregivers and children with developmental disorders who were receiving rehabilitation treatment. The relationships between stress levels and factors such as early rehabilitation and home rehabilitation were quantified.
This study was conducted in children with development disorders, aged from 1.5 years to 18 years, who were undergoing rehabilitation. The Korean version of the Child Behavior Checklist (K-CBCL) and the Adult Self-Report (K-ASR) were used to evaluate stress levels in children and caregivers, respectively.
Questionnaires were provided to 150 caregivers who agreed to participate. However, only 76 copies of the K-CBCL and 75 copies of the K-ASR were collected. The mean K-CBCL and K-ASR scores were in the normal range. The K-CBCL score correlated positively with the K-ASR score ( value < 0.5). K-CBCL externalizing problems score correlated positively with the age at the start of rehabilitation, and the K-CBCL and K-ASR externalizing problems scores correlated negatively with home treatment delivered by caregivers.
Stress levels of children and caregivers were closely related. Home rehabilitation provided by caregivers reduced stress in both caregivers and children. Early rehabilitation did not impart additional psychological burden on caregivers or children.
本研究旨在评估接受康复治疗的发育障碍儿童及其照料者的压力水平。对压力水平与早期康复和家庭康复等因素之间的关系进行了量化。
本研究针对1.5岁至18岁正在接受康复治疗的发育障碍儿童开展。分别使用韩国版儿童行为量表（K-CBCL）和成人自评量表（K-ASR）来评估儿童和照料者的压力水平。
向150名同意参与的照料者发放了问卷。然而，仅收集到76份K-CBCL和75份K-ASR。K-CBCL和K-ASR的平均得分处于正常范围。K-CBCL得分与K-ASR得分呈正相关（值<0.5）。K-CBCL外化问题得分与康复开始时的年龄呈正相关，且K-CBCL和K-ASR外化问题得分与照料者提供的家庭治疗呈负相关。
儿童和照料者的压力水平密切相关。照料者提供的家庭康复减轻了照料者和儿童双方的压力。早期康复并未给照料者或儿童带来额外的心理负担。
