Parent support groups: impact on parental adjustment and perceptions of children's behaviour difficulties
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Parents of children with behaviour problems experience significant stress that may affect their mental health, and may influence their parenting skills, their perceptions of their children, their relationship with their children, and their children's behaviour. Social support is an important factor in the context of stress and coping, and support groups may be an effective way of providing social support to parents. The overall goal of parent support groups is to improve parent adjustment and coping, thereby enhancing child development and improving family functioning as a whole. Support group participation has been associated with a number of positive outcomes for parents, including outcomes particularly important for parents of children with behaviour problems, such as reductions in stress and improvements in adjustment, coping, and perceptions of children's behaviours. However, the efficacy research on parent support groups, and in particular on support groups for parents of children with behaviour problems, is extremely limited and fraught with methodological weaknesses. The purpose of the present study was to examine the impact of support group participation on parental adjustment and perceptions for parents of children with behaviour problems, while addressing some of the methodological limitations that presently exist in the parent support group literature. Specifically, outcome variables included parenting stress, depressive symptomatology, feelings of isolation, sense of competence and satisfaction in the parenting role, as well as parents' perceptions of their children's problem behaviours. Participants included thirty five parents who had at least one child between the ages of four and twelve with behaviour problems. Twenty-two parents participated in the intervention group and thirteen parents participated in the control group. A pretest posttest control group design and standardized, well-validated measures were used. Pretest scores were controlled for in the statistical analyses. Results indicated that support group participation was associated with decreased parenting stress, increased sense of parenting competence, and more favourable perceptions of children's behaviour problems relative to control group parents. Parents also reported very high satisfaction with the group experience. Theoretical and clinical implications are discussed and future directions for research are suggested.
