Bien
que de nombreuses études aient démontré que le soutien social touche un
éventail d'expériences de vie, peu ont examiné ses effets modérateurs
et médiateurs. Dans
la présente étude, 479 parents chinois d'enfants avec un diagnostic de TSA (âgés
de 3 à 18 ans) ont rempli les enquêtes évaluant le stress parental, le
soutien social et la satisfaction à l'égard de la vie.
Les
résultats ont indiqué que le stress parental, le soutien social et la
satisfaction à l'égard de la vie étaient étroitement liés. De plus, le soutien social a influencé et modéré l'influence du stress parental sur la satisfaction de vivre.
Ces résultats impliquent que le stress parental et le soutien social
sont des indicateurs critiques de la satisfaction de la vie et peuvent
servir de stratégies d'intervention de base qui favorisent la
satisfaction de la vie des parents chinois d'enfants avec un diagnostic de TSA.

Abstract
Although
numerous studies have demonstrated that social support affects a range
of life experiences, few have examined its moderating and mediating
effects. In the current study, 479 Chinese parents of children with ASD
(aged 3-18 years) completed the surveys assessing parenting stress,
social support and life satisfaction. Results indicated that parenting
stress, social support and life satisfaction were significantly related.
Moreover, social support both mediated and moderated the influence of
parenting stress on life satisfaction. These findings imply that
parenting stress and social support are critical indicators of life
satisfaction and can serve as basic intervention strategies that promote
life satisfaction among Chinese parents of children with ASD.
