Examined the relationships among parental and child uncertainty about fathers' illnesses and child internalizing problems. Participants included 65 families in which the father had hemophilia, approximately one half of the fathers also were HIV infected. Within each family, respondents included the father, the mother and one child. Outcome variables included both self- and parent-reported child internalizing behaviors. Results indicated that family members' illness uncertainty was intercorrelated, that child uncertainty about the father's illness predicted both anxiety and depressive symptoms in the child, and that mother's uncertainty predicted child-reported anxiety beyond the child's uncertainty.
研究了父母及子女对父亲疾病的不确定性与子女内化问题之间的关系。研究对象包括65个父亲患有血友病的家庭,约一半的父亲还感染了艾滋病毒。在每个家庭中,受访者包括父亲、母亲和一个孩子。结果变量包括自我报告和家长报告的孩子内化行为。结果表明,家庭成员对疾病的不确定性相互关联,孩子对父亲疾病的不确定性可预测孩子的焦虑和抑郁症状,而母亲的不确定性在孩子的不确定性之外还可预测孩子报告的焦虑。
