Previous studies investigating family accommodation (FA) in pediatric anxiety disorders have primarily relied on mothers' reports, while data on FA by fathers remains scarce. We examined the frequency and correlates of fathers' FA of anxious children and compared fathers’ and mothers’ reports of FA. Participants were 69 parents of treatment-seeking children and adolescents with a primary anxiety disorder. FA was highly prevalent amongst fathers, with the majority of fathers participating in symptom-related behaviors and modifying family routines due to child anxiety. Fathers' accommodation levels were significantly correlated with fathers' reports of child internalizing symptoms, child externalizing symptoms, and fathers' own anxiety symptoms. Fathers’ and mothers’ reports of FA were moderately correlated, whereas their reports of their respective distress related to the need to accommodate were only weakly correlated. Fathers reported a significantly lower frequency of FA than did mothers. These findings highlight the importance of obtaining reports from both fathers and mothers when assessing FA. Results are particularly relevant to family-focused and parent-based interventions designed to address and reduce FA amongst parents of clinically anxious children.

父亲在小儿焦虑症中的住宿频率和相关性

以前的调查儿童焦虑症家庭住宿(FA)的研究主要依靠母亲的报告,而父亲关于FA的数据仍然很少。我们检查了焦虑儿童父亲父亲FA的频率和相关性,并比较了父亲和母亲FA的报告。参加者是患有原发性焦虑症的寻求治疗的儿童和青少年的69位父母。FA在父亲中非常普遍,由于父亲的焦虑,大多数父亲参与与症状相关的行为并改变家庭常规。父亲的住宿水平与父亲关于孩子内在症状,孩子外在症状以及父亲自己的焦虑症状的报告显着相关。父亲和母亲关于FA的报告具有中等程度的相关性,而他们关于与需要适应有关的各自苦难的报告只是微弱地相关。父亲报告的FA频率明显低于母亲。这些发现凸显了评估FA时从父母双方获得报告的重要性。结果与旨在解决和减少临床焦虑儿童父母中FA的家庭干预措施和基于父母的干预措施特别相关。
