Background

Research shows that parents of children with developmental disabilities (DDs) are at increased risk for elevated stress. Child adaptive functioning as well as social supports are key factors influencing stress in parents. However, few studies have examined the interaction between these variables and their contribution to perceived stress especially in Egyptian parents.

Aims

The present study investigated the relationship between parenting stress, child adaptive functioning, and social supports. It also examined the moderating role of social support in the relationship between child adaptive functioning and stress in Egyptian parents of children with DDs.

Method

Sixty-four Egyptian parents of children with DDs completed assessment measures of parenting stress, child adaptive functioning, and social supports.

Results

Parenting stress was negatively associated with child adaptive functioning and informal social supports. However, there was no association between parenting stress and formal social supports. In addition, level of informal social support had a moderating effect on the relationship between child adaptive functioning and level of parenting stress.

Conclusions

The findings highlight the importance of interventions that reduce child-related stressors, particularly low adaptive functioning. Programs that address parenting stress and promote effective informal and formal social supports are crucial to help parents cope with stress.

埃及发育障碍儿童父母的压力。社会支持的调节作用

背景

研究表明,发育障碍 (DD) 儿童的父母面临压力升高的风险增加。儿童适应功能以及社会支持是影响父母压力的关键因素。然而,很少有研究检查这些变量之间的相互作用及其对感知压力的贡献,尤其是在埃及父母中。

宗旨

本研究调查了养育压力、儿童适应功能和社会支持之间的关系。它还研究了社会支持在 DD 儿童的埃及父母的儿童适应功能和压力之间的关系中的调节作用。

方法

64 名患有 DD 儿童的埃及父母完成了对养育压力、儿童适应功能和社会支持的评估措施。

结果

养育压力与儿童适应功能和非正式社会支持呈负相关。然而,养育压力与正式的社会支持之间没有关联。此外,非正式社会支持水平对儿童适应功能与养育压力水平之间的关系有调节作用。

结论

研究结果强调了减少与儿童相关的压力源,尤其是低适应能力的干预措施的重要性。解决育儿压力和促进有效的非正式和正式社会支持的计划对于帮助父母应对压力至关重要。
