Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 22-2 (February 2018) . - p.171-180 Titre : Relationship between the broad autism phenotype, social relationships and mental health for mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Megan M PRUITT, Auteur ; Madeline RHODEN, Auteur ; Naomi V EKAS, Auteur Année de publication : 2018 Article en page(s) : p.171-180 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder,broad autism phenotype,mothers,relationship satisfaction,social support,well-being Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study aimed to examine the mechanisms responsible for the association between the broad autism phenotype and depressive symptoms in mothers of a child with autism spectrum disorder. A total of 98 mothers who had a child with autism spectrum disorder between the ages of 2 and 16?years completed assessments of maternal broad autism phenotype, child behavior problems, romantic relationship satisfaction, friend support, family support, and maternal depressive symptoms. Results indicated that only romantic relationship satisfaction was a significant mediator of the relationship between maternal broad autism phenotype social abnormalities and maternal depressive symptoms, where greater broad autism phenotype social abnormalities were associated with lower relationship satisfaction, which in turn was associated with increased depressive symptoms. Child behavior problems were directly related to increased depressive symptoms. Implications regarding maternal mental health outcomes within this population as well as intervention implications are discussed.

The impact of maternal, child, and family characteristics on the daily well-being and parenting experiences of mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder / Megan M PRUITT in Autism, 20-8 (November 2016)  

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.
