Effortful control as a moderator of the relation between contextual risk factors and growth in adjustment problems / Liliana J. LENGUA in Development and Psychopathology, 20-2 (Spring 2008)
[article]
Titre : Effortful control as a moderator of the relation between contextual risk factors and growth in adjustment problems Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Liliana J. LENGUA, Auteur ; Anna C. LONG, Auteur ; Nicole R. BUSH, Auteur ; Erica A. KOVACS, Auteur ; Anika M. TRANCIK, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.509-528 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Effortful control was examined as a moderator of the relations of three domains of contextual risk factors to growth in internalizing and externalizing problems in a community sample (N = 189) of children (8–12 years at Time 1). Socioeconomic, maternal, and environmental risk factors were examined as predictors of initial levels and growth in children's adjustment problems across 3 years. The effects of the risk factors depended on children's level of effortful control. For children lower in effortful control, socioeconomic risk was related to significantly higher initial levels of internalizing and externalizing problems and decreases over time. However, children lower in effortful control had higher levels of problems at all three time points than children higher in effortful control. Maternal risk was associated with increases in internalizing for children lower in effortful control, and environmental risk was related to increases in internalizing and externalizing problems for children lower in effortful control, but not those higher in effortful control. Children who were lower in effortful control appeared to experience more adverse effects of contextual risk than those higher in effortful control, suggesting that interventions aimed at improving children's effortful control might serve to protect children from increased risk of adjustment problems associated with contextual risk factors.

Titre : Health-related quality of life for children with ASD: Associations with behavioral characteristics Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Karen A. KUHLTHAU, Auteur ; Erica A. KOVACS, Auteur ; Trevor A. HALL, Auteur ; Traci CLEMMONS, Auteur ; Felice ORLICH, Auteur ; Jennifer DELAHAYE, Auteur ; Darryn SIKORA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1035-1042 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Health-related quality of life Behavior Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract This paper examines health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of children age 6–11 years with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) using the Child Health and Illness Profile – Child Edition (CHIP–CE). We further examine associations of HRQoL scores with measures of behavior using regression models. Overall HRQoL scores are lower than those for normative samples. We find that both externalizing and internalizing behaviors (measured with the Child Behavior Checklist) are correlated with HRQoL as are several of the subscales of the aberrant behavior checklist. These results suggest that some potentially modifiable aspects of ASD, in particular ASD-related and aberrant behaviors, are associated with HRQoL. These associations are suggestive of the potential for improvements in behaviors in some domains having the potential to improve HRQoL. Future studies should determine whether improvements in behaviors are associated with improvements in HRQoL.

Mean Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) scores of the 286 children assessed were significantly lower than those of healthy populations (according to published norms). When compared to normative data from children with chronic conditions, children with ASD demonstrated worse HRQoL for total, psychosocial, emotional and social functioning, but did not demonstrate differing scores for physical and school functioning. HRQoL was not consistently related to ASD diagnosis or intellectual ability. However, it was consistently related to internalizing and externalizing problems as well as repetitive behaviors, social responsiveness, and adaptive behaviors. Associations among HRQoL and behavioral characteristics suggest that treatments aimed at improvements in these behaviors may improve HRQoL.

To address the impact of child behavior problems on family health, we examined data collected from 136 families raising children with ASD. Children were divided into groups based on parent responses to the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL): low versus high internalizing and low versus high externalizing behavior problems. Family functioning was measured using the Family Impact Questionnaire, Revised (FIQ-R). Results of ANCOVA analyses indicated significant group differences in FIQ-R domains of Negative Attitudes About Parenting, Social Relationships, Sibling Impact, and Impact to Marriage when comparing externalizing behaviors. None of the FIQ-R domains demonstrated group differences when comparing internalizing behaviors. Correlation coefficients indicated moderately strong associations between higher externalizing behaviors and poorer family functioning, with the most significant associations among child behavior and increased negativity in parenting perceptions and poorer social functioning. This study provides information regarding co-occurring behaviors that have the strongest negative association with family functioning and the domains of family functioning most vulnerable to the severity of such behaviors.

Further, little is understood about the HRQoL of children with ASD in general. This study assessed the HRQoL and sleep health of a sample of children with ASD and investigated the relationship between HRQoL and overall sleep problems within the context of key clinical characteristics. Study participants included 86 parents of children with ASD between the ages of 4 and 12 years. Subjects were recruited from 3 autism specialty clinics at large academic medical centers and asked to proxy-report on their children's HRQoL and sleep habits. Adjusted regression models showed a consistent negative relationship between sleep disturbance and HRQoL, with greater overall sleep problems being associated with poorer total, physical, and psychosocial HRQoL. Sleep duration and sleep anxiety were also found to be negatively associated with HRQoL. These findings suggest that treatments that are effective in treating sleep disturbances may improve children's HRQoL.
