The aim of the present study is to determine the relation between the satisfaction of parents of children with cancer with the social support received and provided from a multidimensional perspective (sources and types of support) and the disruptions that take place in different areas of their lives (partner, children, family, social relations, and economic and employment situation).
One hundred twelve parents of children diagnosed with cancer who received treatment at the Mother and Child Hospital of Málaga (Spain) were recruited. Data were gathered through self-reporting measures. The instrument used includes a questionnaire about socio-demographic variables, a questionnaire about parents' adjustment to the situation and a questionnaire about social support received and provided based on the different sources and types of support.
There is a negative and significant relation between satisfaction with support received and provided and the magnitude of disruptions in parents' lives.
Satisfaction with emotional support received from the partner and family, and support provided to these sources, relate to lower disruption in different areas of parents' lives. These results can have significant practical implications for the psychosocial care provided to parents of children with cancer.
本研究旨在从多维视角（支持来源和类型）确定癌症患儿父母对其获得的和提供的社会支持的满意度与生活各方面的中断（包括伴侣、孩子、家庭、社会关系以及经济和就业状况）之间的关系。
招募了 112 名在西班牙马拉加母婴医院接受治疗的癌症患儿的父母。通过自我报告措施收集数据。使用的工具包括一份关于社会人口统计学变量的问卷、一份关于父母对情况的调整的问卷以及一份关于基于不同来源和类型的支持获得和提供的社会支持的问卷。
获得和提供的支持的满意度与父母生活中断的程度呈负相关且显著。
对来自伴侣和家庭的情感支持的满意度以及对这些来源的支持与父母生活的不同领域中断程度较低有关。这些结果对为癌症患儿的父母提供的社会心理关怀具有重要的实际意义。
