唐氏综合症儿童的气质特点及对母亲教养行为的影响

Down's Syndrome Temperament and Maternal Response to Descriptions of Child Behavior

本文介绍了由澳大利亚国家健康和医疗咨询中心提供资助的一项研究。此项研究探讨了 2 3位唐氏综合症儿童气质特点及对他们母亲教养行为的影响。结果发现唐氏综合症的儿童与正常儿童明显差异。容易型气质的唐氏综合症儿童比困难型儿童容易引起母亲的直接教育反应和较少的负情绪语言表达 ;而且母亲的教养方式与唐氏综合症儿童的气质中的活动性、节律性、趋避、适应性和心境纬度有显着相关。

In this Research, the mothers of 23 Down's syndrome children were asked to complete the Behavioral Style Questionnaire (BSQ) concerning the temperament characteristics of their child. They were also interviewed with the Implicit Parental Leaning Theory (IPLET) Scale, which asked how they would handle certain specified child behaviors. Mothers of the children with temperament rated as easy, responded to the IPLET situations with more direct teaching responses and with less verbal expression of negative emotions than mothers of more difficult children. In addition, there were significant associations between maternal IPLET response and the activity, rhythm, approach, adaptability, and mood dimensions of the BSQ.
