Respite Care, Stress, Uplifts, and Depression in Single Mothers of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders

Christensen, Ruthann Grawe 01 July 2014 (has links) (PDF)
Single mothers of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are likely to experience high levels of stress and be at risk for depression. However, respite care can reduce parenting stress and lower psychological distress in parents of children with disabilities. This study focused on single mothers of children with ASD and their reports of stress relative to respite care received. One hundred and twenty-two single mothers completed the Respite Care Instrument, Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale, Hassles and Uplifts Scale, and Caregiver Burden Instrument. Results were mixed. Respite care was positively related to daily uplifts, but not significantly related to depression or stress. Uplifts mediated the relationship between respite care and depression, but stress did not mediate the relationship between respite care and depression, indicating uplifts were a process through which respite care had an indirect effect on depression. More than half (59.8%; n = 73) of mothers accessed respite care, most (41.0%; n = 30) being provided by a combination of sources: grandparents, extended family member, babysitter, community agency, or other. Seventy-seven percent of mothers (n = 94) were at risk for clinical depression. Findings provide evidence that single mothers of children with ASD are likely to experience depressive symptoms, access multiple sources of respite care, and be less likely to report depressive symptoms when they (a) receive respite care, and (b) report high amounts of daily uplifts. Therefore, it is important respite care be accessible and provided to single mothers of children with ASD. Recommendations for policy makers, school personnel, and research are offered.

Dvyliktokių, augančių nepilnose šeimose, savigarbos ir požiūrio į lytinius santykius ypatumai / The peculiarities of self – esteem and attitude toward sexual intercourse of the 12th grade females, who live in one – parent family

Kiburienė, Akvilija 18 June 2009 (has links)
Tyrimo tikslas - Nustatyti dvyliktokių, augančių nepilnose šeimose, savigarbos bei požiūrio į lytinius santykius ypatumus. Tyrime dalyvavo 246 dvyliktokės iš Kauno, Kaišiadorių, Kėdainių, Panevėžio apskričių. Respondenčių amžius 17-19 metų. Tiriamųjų savigarbai įvertinti buvo naudojamas daugiasluoksnis savęs vertinimo klausimynas sukurtas D.L.DuBois ir kolegų (1996), išverstas Lauros Šeibokaitės bei Gintarės Skukauskaitės bei Rosenberg (1965) savigarbos klausimynas. Požiūriui į lytinius santykius naudotas semantinio diferencialo metodas bei tyrėjos sudaryti klausimai. Savigarba tai teigiamas arba neigiamas požiūris į save (Rosenberg 1965), jos formavimasis priklauso nuo socialinės aplinkos, kurioje asmuo auga. Paauglės savigarbos formavimuisi svarbiausią vaidmenį atlieka šeima. Ankstesniuose psichologų tyrimuose pastebėti ryšiai tarp savigarbos lygio ir paauglių lytinio aktyvumo. Gauti rezultatai šių ryšių nepatvirtina. Merginos augančios nepilnose ir pilnose šeimose save vertina panašiai. Nepastebėti skirtumai tarp merginų požiūrio į lytinius santykius ir šeimos sudėties, kurioje jos auga. Gauti rezultatai patvirtina, jog lytinio gyvenimo aktyvumas glaudžiai siejasi su šeimos sudėtimi, kurioje auga merginos. Lytiškai aktyvios, pilnose šeimose augančios dvyliktokės malonia lytinio gyvenimo priežastimi įvardino intymumo poreikį :“myliu ir esu mylima“. / The aim of the study was to find the peculiarities of self-esteem and attitude toward sexual intercourse of 12th grade females, who live in one-parent family. Methods: self-esteem was measured by multidimensional Self-Esteem Questionnaire (SEQ) designed by D.L.DuBois et al. (1996), translated by L.Šeibokaitė and G. Skukauskaitė. Self-esteem questionnaire by Rosenberg (1965) was also used. Osgood's semantic differential method was used to evaluate the attitude toward the sexual intercourse. Self-esteem is positive or negative attitude to yourself (Rosenberg, 1965). The formation of the self-esteem depends on the social sphere where the person develops. The family plays the main role in the teenager’s self-esteem formation. In the former psychological researches, connections between self-esteem and teenagers sexual activity were noted. But received results don’t confirm such connections. The girls from the one-parent families or from the nuclear families assess themselves similarly. Differences between girls’ attitude toward sexual intercourse and family composition were not found too. The results proved that sexual activity is close connected with family composition. Senior sexual active females, growing in the nuclear families, named the requirement of the intimacy as the main reason of their sexual life: “I love and I am beloved”.
