Parenting a child with leukemia : mothers' and fathers' sense of competence and orientation towards uncertainty
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Childhood cancer places a heavy burden on all family members by threatening their personal equilibrium and well being.The dual purpose of the study is to explore and describe mothers' and fathers' orientation towards uncertainty and to illustrate parents' perceptions of competence in terms ofday-to-day experiences parenting a child with a chronic illness.Data were collected from a total of 1$ couples who completed the Parenting $ense of Competence Scale (PSOC, Johnston & Mash, 1989), the Uncertainty Orientation measures (Sorrentino, Hanna, & Roney, 1992), and a serni-structured interview about their perceptions of competence and experiences of uncertainty.Findings revealed mothers as most moderate-oriented and fathers as rnost uncertainty oriented.No opposite uncertainty-orientation profiles were found arnong couples.Although findings revealed no statistically significant differences between mothers' and fathers' perception of competence, interview data show maternai dissatisfaction when it cornes to parenting and a paternal lack of ability to cope with the child's illness.Results also shed light on the relationship between parents' uncertainty orientation and their perceived sense of competence, as predictors for effective parenting in a farnily struggling with a chronically ill child.Overali, the findings are encouraging to elicit further approaches to acquiring information about parents' characteristics and their orientation towards uncertainty.Psycho-educationai programs focusing on parents with the aim to improve the parents' sense of competence and mastering uncertainty under iife-threatening conditions might be of benefit to the whole famiiy.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
