Specifically, caregivers of people with ASDs have been observed to have more somatic symptoms, poorer self-perceived general health, poorer social functioning and altered immune and endocrine systems. Various positive variables including emotional intelligence (EI) have been found to protect health in several populations, but no studies have previously analyzed the effect of EI in caregivers of people with ASDs. The present study aimed to analyze the association of the three components of EI (attention, clarity and repair) with self-reported health and cortisol awakening response (CAR) in caregivers of offspring with ASD. Attention was negatively associated and clarity positively associated with self-reported health. Clarity and repair were associated with a lower magnitude of CAR, estimated by the area under the curve with respect to ground (AUCg). Moreover, CAR AUCg was a mediator in the association of clarity and repair with self-perceived general health. These results confirm that EI components have different effects on health in caregivers of people with ASDs. EI should be included as a target of interventions to improve health in this population.

Lower Electrodermal Activity to Acute Stress in Caregivers of People with Autism Spectrum Disorder: An Adaptive Habituation to Stress / Nicolás RUIZ-ROBLEDILLO in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 45-2 (February 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 45-2 (February 2015) . - p.576-588 Titre : Lower Electrodermal Activity to Acute Stress in Caregivers of People with Autism Spectrum Disorder: An Adaptive Habituation to Stress Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Nicolás RUIZ-ROBLEDILLO, Auteur ; Luis MOYA-ALBIOL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.576-588 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Electrodermal activity  Caregivers  Autism spectrum disorder  Autonomic nervous system  Health Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Caring for a relative with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) entails being under chronic stress that could alter body homeostasis. Electrodermal activity (EDA) is an index of the sympathetic activity of the autonomic nervous system related to emotionality and homeostasis. This study compares EDA in response to acute stress in the laboratory between parents of people with (n = 30) and without (n = 34) ASD (caregivers and non-caregivers, respectively). Caregivers showed lower EDA in response to acute stress than non-caregivers. They also presented higher trait anxiety, anger, depression, and somatic symptoms than non-caregivers. Higher EDA was related to a worse mood and more severe somatic symptoms only in caregivers. These results could reflect an adaptive habituation to stress and establish that high EDA in response to acute stress depends on caregivers’ health.
