Depressive symptoms of autism spectrum disorder children's siblings in Greece: Associations with parental anxiety and social support / Evangelia KOUKOURIKI in Autism, 25-2 (February 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 25-2 (February 2021) . - p.529-544 Titre : Depressive symptoms of autism spectrum disorder children's siblings in Greece: Associations with parental anxiety and social support Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Evangelia KOUKOURIKI, Auteur ; Sryridon-Georgios SOULIS, Auteur ; Elias ANDREOULAKIS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.529-544 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders  depressive symptoms  parental mental health  perceived social support  typically developing siblings Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Typically developing siblings of children with autism spectrum disorders are often found to exhibit elevated levels of stress and depressive symptoms compared to siblings of typically developing children or siblings of children with other disabilities. Besides the behavioral problems of the child with autism and certain demographic characteristics that have been recognized as factors associated with typically developing siblings' psychological distress, the role of parental mental health and the social support from the family has not been studied sufficiently. The goal of this study is to assess depressive symptoms in 85 Greek school-aged typically developing siblings of children with autism and to investigate for any associations between siblings' depressive symptoms on one hand and demographics, parental mental health, and perceived social support on the other hand. It was found that typically developing siblings had higher levels of depressive symptoms compared to children from a general population sample. In addition, parental anxiety and social support from the family as perceived by the parents themselves were identified as independently associated with typically developing siblings' depressive symptoms. Of note, perceived social support failed to attenuate the association between parental anxiety and siblings' depressive symptoms. These results highlight the importance of assessing both parental and typically developing siblings' psychological state to implement interventions addressed to the needs of all family members.

Feelings of Loneliness and Social Dissatisfaction in Siblings of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders: The Role of Birth Order and Perceived Social Support / Evangelia KOUKOURIKI in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52-11 (November 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 52-11 (November 2022) . - p.4722-4738 Titre : Feelings of Loneliness and Social Dissatisfaction in Siblings of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders: The Role of Birth Order and Perceived Social Support Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Evangelia KOUKOURIKI, Auteur ; Evangelini ATHANASOPOULOU, Auteur ; Elias ANDREOULAKIS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.4722-4738 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adolescent  Autism Spectrum Disorder/psychology  Birth Order  Child  Humans  Loneliness  Siblings/psychology  Social Support  Autism spectrum disorders  Perceived social support  Siblings  Social dissatisfaction Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Loneliness has been associated with several adverse psychosocial outcomes in childhood and adolescence. The present study aimed to investigate feelings of loneliness and social dissatisfaction in school-aged typically-developing (TD) siblings of children with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD). For this purpose, 118 siblings of children with ASD and 115 siblings of TD children and one of their parents participated in this study. Siblings of ASD-children reported higher levels of loneliness and social dissatisfaction than the controls. The hierarchical multiple regressions performed revealed that those feelings were inversely associated with being the first-born and with specific aspects of social support as perceived by the parent. The younger siblings of ASD-children seem to be in need of certain interventions beyond social support.

Self-reported Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) and Anxiety Among Greek School-Age Siblings of Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) in Relation to Parental Mental Health and Social Support / Evangelia KOUKOURIKI in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 50-8 (August 2020)

The aim of the study was to investigate for any association between siblings' HRQOL or anxiety and parental mental health, perceived social support as well as major demographic factors. It was found that the disability group (ASD-sibs) showed elevated anxiety levels and poorer HRQOL than controls. In hierarchical multiple regression models, the anxiety of ASD-sibs was significantly associated with parental anxiety independent of parental perceived social support and demographic factors, whereas the HRQOL of ASD-sibs was associated with perceived social support independent of parental physical and mental health and demographic factors.
