| Résumé : |
Background Previous research has suggested that parents can experience positive contributions as a result of raising a child on the autism spectrum. A better understanding of positive contributions among this population can inform clinicians and policymakers and lead to improved outcomes for families. This review aimed to systematically examine studies measuring positive contributions among parents of children with ASD (<18 years) and to subsequently summarise the conceptualisations and measurements of positive contributions within the literature and investigate associated child, parental, family and contextual factors. Method An electronic database search was conducted using Medline, Psycinfo, CINAHL, ERIC and Embase: 94 articles were identified for full text review and 26 studies were selected. The quality of studies were appraised and data were synthesised according to the review aims. Results Positive contributions were conceptualised in nine different ways across selected studies. Ten standardised self-report questionnaires, one unstandardised questionnaire and one closed question were used to measure these constructs. Variables associated with higher positive contributions within this group included older age of child, being of an ethnic minority group, being a mother, higher psychological wellbeing and personal resources, relationship satisfaction, social support and narrative writing. Conclusions This review verified previous reports of positive contributions among parents of children with ASD and highlighted potential areas of support. Strengths and limitations of the studies are highlighted and implications for future research and clinical practice are discussed. |
