Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 20-8 (November 2016) . - p.973-985 Titre : The impact of maternal, child, and family characteristics on the daily well-being and parenting experiences of mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Megan M PRUITT, Auteur ; Kelcie WILLIS, Auteur ; Lisa TIMMONS, Auteur ; Naomi V EKAS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.973-985 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder  daily diaries  family  parenting  well-being Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study utilized a daily diaries method to explore the global factors that impact daily general affect and daily parenting interactions of mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder. Eighty-three mothers of a child with autism spectrum disorder between the ages of 3 and 13?years completed global assessments of maternal depressive symptoms, child autism spectrum disorder symptom severity, and family functioning. Mothers then reported on their daily negative and positive affect as well as their daily positive and frustrating parenting interactions for 14 consecutive days. The results indicated that higher levels of maternal depressive symptoms were related to decreased daily positive affect, whereas greater child social motivation impairments were related to increased daily positive affect. Only maternal depressive symptoms were associated with increased daily negative affect. Furthermore, higher levels of family cohesion were related to increased daily positive parenting interactions. Finally, higher maternal depressive symptoms as well as family rigidity were related to increased daily frustrating parenting interactions. Implications for interventions focused on the family system are discussed.

The Relationship Between Optimism, Coping, and Depressive Symptoms in Hispanic Mothers and Fathers of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Kelcie WILLIS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-7 (July 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 46-7 (July 2016) . - p.2427-2440 Titre : The Relationship Between Optimism, Coping, and Depressive Symptoms in Hispanic Mothers and Fathers of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kelcie WILLIS, Auteur ; Lisa TIMMONS, Auteur ; Megan PRUITT, Auteur ; Hoa Lam SCHNEIDER, Auteur ; Michael ALESSANDRI, Auteur ; Naomi V. EKAS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2427-2440 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Hispanic  Optimism  Coping  Psychological well-being  Mothers  Fathers Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined gender differences in the relationship between dispositional optimism, coping, and depressive symptoms of Hispanic mothers (n = 46) and fathers (n = 43) of children with autism spectrum disorder. Coping was hypothesized to mediate the relationship between optimism and depressive symptoms. The results revealed that mothers reported greater depressive symptoms and greater use of positive and support coping than fathers; however, both mothers and fathers reported similar levels of optimism and use of avoidant coping. In addition, positive and avoidant coping strategies mediated the association between optimism and depressive symptoms for both mothers and fathers. Clinical implications for this study include interventions for improving optimistic outlooks as well as interventions that improve parents’ coping skills and therefore reduce negative outcomes.
