Linking Child Autism to Parental Depression and Anxiety: The Mediating Roles of Enacted and Felt Stigma / Kevin Ka Shing CHAN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 51-2 (February 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 51-2 (February 2021) . - p.527-537 Titre : Linking Child Autism to Parental Depression and Anxiety: The Mediating Roles of Enacted and Felt Stigma Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kevin Ka Shing CHAN, Auteur ; Donald Chi Kin LEUNG, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.527-537 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Child autistic symptoms  Courtesy stigma  Parental affective symptoms  Public stigma  Self-stigma  Vicarious stigma Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined whether child autistic symptoms would heighten parental affective symptoms through evoking enacted stigma from the community (i.e., public and courtesy stigma) and felt stigma within the parents (i.e., vicarious and self-stigma). Cross-sectional questionnaire data were collected from 441 parents of children with autism spectrum disorder. Path analyses showed that social communication and interaction deficits and restricted and repetitive behaviors in child autism were positively associated with public and courtesy stigma. While public stigma was positively associated with parental vicarious stigma, courtesy stigma was positively associated with parental self-stigma. Both vicarious and self-stigma were positively associated with depressive and anxiety symptoms among parents. Findings revealed how child autism could compromise parental well-being through exacerbating the family's stigmatizing experiences.

Longitudinal impact of parents’ discrimination experiences on children’s internalizing and externalizing symptoms: A 2-year study of families of autistic children / Kevin Ka Shing CHAN in Autism, 27-2 (February 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 27-2 (February 2023) . - p.296-308 Titre : Longitudinal impact of parents’ discrimination experiences on children’s internalizing and externalizing symptoms: A 2-year study of families of autistic children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kevin Ka Shing CHAN, Auteur ; Donald Chi Kin LEUNG, Auteur ; Winnie Tsz Wa FUNG, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.296-308 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder  coparenting conflict  discrimination experiences  externalizing symptoms  harsh parenting  internalizing symptoms  parental depression Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The present study examined the longitudinal associations of parents’ discrimination experiences with children’s internalizing and externalizing symptoms among families of autistic children and tested whether these associations would be mediated by parental depression, harsh parenting, and coparenting conflict. On three occasions across 2 years (i.e. T1, T2, and T3), 441 parents of autistic children from Hong Kong, China, provided questionnaire data. Path analyses showed that parents’ discrimination experiences at T1 had significant direct effects on parental depression, harsh parenting, and coparenting conflict at T2, which, in turn, had significant direct effects on children’s internalizing and externalizing symptoms at T3. Bootstrap analyses further demonstrated that parents’ discrimination experiences at T1 had significant indirect effects on children’s internalizing and externalizing symptoms at T3 via parental depression, harsh parenting, and coparenting conflict at T2. Theoretically, our findings elucidate how parents’ discrimination experiences may longitudinally heighten children’s internalizing and externalizing symptoms by adversely affecting parental well-being and parent “child and inter-parental relationships. Practically, our findings highlight the importance of designing and implementing community-based stigma reduction programs and family-based stigma coping interventions to reduce parents’ discrimination experiences and associated adverse outcomes on well-being, parenting, marriage, and child development.

Longitudinal impact of self-stigma content and process on parental warmth and hostility among parents of children with autism spectrum disorder / Kevin Ka Shing CHAN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-7 (July 2023)

On three occasions across two years, 441 Hong Kong parents of children with ASD provided questionnaire data. Path analyses showed that self-stigma content and process were associated with greater parenting stress, which was, in turn, associated with reduced parental warmth and increased parental hostility. Our findings reveal the longitudinal influences of self-stigma on parenting practices and demonstrate how these influences can be explained by parenting stress. Our findings also suggest the importance of supporting parents of children with ASD to mitigate self-stigma and associated parenting stress in improving their parenting practices.

The Impact of Child Autistic Symptoms on Parental Marital Relationship: Parenting and Coparenting Processes as Mediating Mechanisms / Kevin Ka Shing CHAN in Autism Research, 13-9 (September 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 13-9 (September 2020) . - p.1516-1526 Titre : The Impact of Child Autistic Symptoms on Parental Marital Relationship: Parenting and Coparenting Processes as Mediating Mechanisms Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kevin Ka Shing CHAN, Auteur ; Donald Chi Kin LEUNG, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1516-1526 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Research shows that parenting a child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with increased marital conflicts and reduced marital love. Less is known, however, about the potential mechanism underlying these associations. The present study tested a family process model linking child autism to parental marriage. We hypothesized that child autistic symptoms would be associated with increased marital conflicts and reduced marital love among parents of children with ASD, and that these associations would be mediated by parenting stress and coparenting conflicts. A total of 382 parents of children with ASD from Hong Kong, China completed questionnaire measures of child autistic symptoms, parenting stress, coparenting conflicts, marital conflicts, and marital love. Structural equation modeling (SEM) and Bootstrap analyses were conducted to analyze the relations among the variables. SEM showed that child autistic symptoms were related to higher levels of parenting stress and coparenting conflicts, which were, in turn, related to increased marital conflicts and reduced marital love among parents of children with ASD. Bootstrap analyses further demonstrated that child autistic symptoms had significant indirect effects on marital conflicts and marital love via parenting stress and coparenting conflicts. Theoretically, this study revealed the potential pathways through which child autism symptomatology may adversely impact the family processes and compromise the marital relationships of parents of children with ASD. Practically, this study pointed to the utility of helping parents of children with ASD to manage child autistic symptoms, alleviate parenting stress, and reduce coparenting conflicts in improving their marital qualities. Lay Summary This study showed that child autistic symptoms were related to higher levels of parenting stress and coparenting conflicts, which were, in turn, related to increased marital conflicts and reduced marital love among parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). These findings pointed to the importance of helping parents of children with ASD to manage child autistic symptoms, alleviate parenting stress, and reduce coparenting conflicts in improving their marital qualities. © 2020 International Society for Autism Research, Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
