Comparaison des points de vue des pères et des mères sur le "trouble du spectre de l'autisme" de leur enfant

Aperçu: G.M.

Les mères sont souvent les principaux parents participants à la recherche sur les "troubles du spectre de l'autisme" (TSA). En conséquence, on sait peu de choses sur les perceptions des pères concernant les TSA de leurs enfants et si ces perceptions diffèrent de celles des mères.
Compte tenu des informations limitées disponibles concernant les perceptions des pères sur les TSA de leurs enfants, cette étude visait à étudier les variables pères (stress, adaptation, soutien et perception du handicap) et comment elles se comparent à celles des mères.
Les participants étaient 361 parents biologiques (294 mères et 67 pères) d'enfants autistes qui ont participé à une étude plus vaste.
Les résultats ont révélé des différences significatives entre le stress et l'adaptation autodéclarés par les mères et les pères.
Comprendre les différences entre les points de vue des parents a à la fois des implications de recherche et cliniques pour travailler avec des familles qui élèvent des enfants autistes.

Comparing Fathers' and Mothers' Perspectives About Their Child's Autism Spectrum Disorder

Affiliations

Abstract

Mothers are often the primary parent participants in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) research. As a result, little is known about fathers' perceptions regarding their children's ASD and whether these perceptions differ from mothers'. Given the limited information available regarding fathers' perceptions about their children's ASD, this study aimed to investigate father variables (stress, coping, support, and perception of disability) and how they compare to mothers'. Participants were 361 biological parents (294 mothers and 67 fathers) of children on the autism spectrum who participated in a larger study. Results revealed significant differences between mothers' and fathers' self-reported stress and coping. Understanding differences between parents' perspectives has both research and clinical implications for working with families raising children on the autism spectrum.

Keywords: Autism; Coping style; Fathers; Parental stress; Perception of disability; Support style.
