父母情绪调节困难对流动儿童对立违抗症状的影响:亲子冲突解决方式和儿童情绪调节的作用

本研究以来自北京10所小学的369名有对立违抗(Oppositional Defiant Disorder, ODD)症状的流动儿童及父母、349名无ODD症状的对照组流动儿童及父母为被试进行了问卷施测,探究了父母情绪调节困难对流动儿童对立违抗症状的影响,并进一步探讨了亲子冲突解决方式和儿童情绪调节(情绪调节与情绪消极和不稳)在其中所起的作用。经过分析发现:(1)ODD症状流动儿童的父母情绪调节、亲子冲突解决方式、儿童情绪调节显著差于对照组儿童;(2)总体上,父母情绪调节困难、亲子冲突解决方式和儿童ODD症状之间两两相关显著,而儿童情绪调节与这几个变量相关不显著;(3)父母情绪调节困难能显著正向预测流动儿童ODD症状,并进一步通过亲子冲突解决方式对流动儿童ODD症状产生影响;(4)儿童情绪调节(儿童情绪调节与儿童情绪消极和不稳)仅在父母情绪调节困难对儿童ODD症状的直接影响中起着显著的调节作用,对亲子冲突解决方式所起的中介作用并无调节作用。在对有ODD症状的流动儿童进行干预时,不仅要培养儿童自身的情绪调节能力,也应提升父母的情绪调节能力并改善亲子冲突解决方式。

The Association of Parents Emotion Dysregulation with Oppositional Defiant Symptoms of Migrant Children: The Role of Parents Conflict Tactics and Children Emotion Regulation

The purpose of the current study was to explore the association of parents emotion dysregulation with ODD (oppositional defiant disorder) symptoms among migrant children and the role of parents conflict tactics and children emotion regulation in this association. Totally, 369 migrant children with ODD symptoms and their parents, and 349 migrant children with none ODD symptom and their parents from 10 primary schools in Beijing participated in the current study and finished the questionnaires. On the basis of data analysis, results revealed that parents emotion dysregulation was significantly more severe, and parents conflict tactics (CT) and children emotion regulation were significantly worse in migrant children with ODD symptoms, comparing to migrant children with none ODD symptom. For migrant children with ODD symptoms, parents emotion dysregulation was significantly associated with children ODD symptoms, and parents conflict tactics were significantly associated with parents emotion dysregulation and children ODD symptoms, while no significant association was found between children emotion regulation with other variables. Furthermore, parents emotion dysregulation significantly predicted ODD symptoms of migrant children, with CT of parents playing a significant mediation role in this prediction. Children emotion regulation significantly moderated the relationship between parents emotion dysregulation and ODD symptoms among migrant children with ODD symptoms. However, moderation role of children emotion regulation were found neither in the relationship between parents emotion dysregulation and CT of parents nor in the relationship between CT of parents and ODD symptoms of migrant children. Results of the current study suggested that intervention programs for migrant children with ODD symptoms should not only include emotion regulation training for children themselves but should also include emotion regulation training and CT training for their parents.
