“…Instead, we decided to control the effect of the age statistically. Furthermore, because some research have shown that children’s gender may have an impact on parental stress (e.g., Sollie et al, 2016 ) and on family functioning( Bauermeister et al, 2010 ), the effect of children’s gender should also taken into account in regression and mediation models. However, we acknowledged that sample size limitations make this analysis strategy suboptimal.…”

“…Moreover, common comorbid problems in children and adolescents with ADHD may negatively impact parent–child relationships and result in higher levels of parenting stress (e.g., Anthony et al, 2005 ). This is especially the case for the presence of externalizing behavior ( Anjum and Malik, 2010 ; Bauermeister et al, 2010 ; Pimentel et al, 2011 ; Theule et al, 2011 , 2013 ; Wiener et al, 2016 ). Furthermore, some studies also have underlined the influence of internalizing symptoms ( Anjum and Malik, 2010 ; Graziano et al, 2011 ; Pimentel et al, 2011 ; Theule et al, 2013 ).…”

“…Both children ADHD (and comorbidities) and parental stress have been associated to family functioning variables and perceived social support. First, it has been well-documented the strong relationships between family dysfunction and child ADHD ( Donenberg and Baker, 1993 ; Lange et al, 2005 ; Bauermeister et al, 2010 ; Sollie et al, 2016 ). High levels of parents’ disagreement experienced in regard to the child problems, low participation in social events, and high affectation of the family’s social life was related to high levels of child ADHD severity or/and conduct problems ( Shelton et al, 1998 ; Fleck et al, 2015 ).…”

Child/Adolescent’s ADHD and Parenting Stress: The Mediating Role of Family Impact and Conduct Problems

Objective: The demands of parenting are usually associated with some stress, and elevated levels of stress may affect the parent–child relationships and parenting practices. This is especially the case of families where children have special needs conditions or disorders, like Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).Method: This study examined parenting stress among mothers of children and adolescents with ADHD. The sample comprised 126 mothers of girls (36; 29%) and boys (90; 71%) aged 6–17 years old.Results: Mothers reported their own stress levels as well as the children and adolescents’ variables (severity of their ADHD symptoms, conduct, and emotional problems) and family–contextual variables (negative impact on family’s social life, impact on couple relationship, and perceived social support). Hierarchical multiple regression showed that (a) negative impact on social life and conduct problems were the strongest predictors of mother’s stress. Bootstrap mediation analyses revealed that (b) the association between child and adolescent’s ADHD and parenting stress was mediated by children’s conduct problems and by negative impact on family’s social life, and not by children’s emotional problems nor by mother’s perceived social support. The mediation analysis also suggested (c) a pathway from child/adolescent’s ADHD through children’s conduct problems and then through their negative impact on family’s social life to mother’s parenting stress.Conclusion: These results suggest that both child/adolescent’s and family factors should be considered in the designing of interventions for reducing parenting stress in families of children and adolescents with ADHD.

“…In addition, the analysis carried out in this study did not account for the variability of experiences associated with different subtypes of ADHD. Indeed parents' experiences may be quite different depending on the specific subtype their son was diagnosed with (Bauermeister et al 2009). In fact, there was only one parent in the present study who had a child with purely inattentive ADHD.…”

Parenting a child with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a challenging experience. The hyperactivity, impulsivity and inattention of a child with ADHD often put parenting skills to the test. The present study thus aimed to explore the experiences of parents of children with ADHD in Ireland. Eighteen parents of 7-12-year-old boys with a diagnosis of ADHD took part in open-ended interviews. Thematic analysis was carried out on the interview content. Six major themes were identified: (1) getting your head around ADHD; (2) the child takes over; (3) emotional impact; (4) inconsistency of structural supports; (5) ignorance and discrimination; and (6) it's not all bad. Results are discussed in terms of the need to implement family-centred supports for ADHD. The importance of educating the population at large about ADHD is also discussed. Finally, the need to take a more positive, strengths-based approach to ADHD is highlighted.

“…Bauermeister et al (2010), in a sample of 568 six to twelve-yearolds, reported that ODD was associated with higher negative impact on the family in social life, financial burden, school relations, couple relationships, and relationships with siblings. In this study, ODD symptoms were associated with impact on global stress in relation to parenting, regardless of ADHD symptomatology, and no significant sex interactions were observed.…”

Título: Deterioro funcional asociado a los síntomas del trastorno negativista desafiante en niños y niñas de 3 a 7 años de la población general. Resumen: Objetivo: Explorar si los síntomas y el diagnóstico de Trastorno Negativista Desafiante (TND), según los criterios diagnósticos DSM-IV, se asocian al mismo nivel de deterioro funcional en niños y niñas de la población general en los primeros años escolares. Método: Se aplicó un cuestionario de cribado a una muestra de 852 escolares de tres a siete años de edad. Un total de 251 familias fueron evaluadas con entrevista diagnóstica y con las medidas de deterioro funcional. Resultados: Los síntomas de TND y el diagnóstico son igualmente prevalentes en los niños y en las niñas, pero las niñas de entre 3 y 5 años presentaron una mayor prevalencia de diagnós-tico subumbral de TND. No hubo diferencias significativas entre niños y niñas en el uso de servicios de salud, ni en el tratamiento recibido, ni en la carga familiar asociada a los síntomas o al diagnóstico de TND. Aunque el diagnóstico de TND no se asoció a un mayor deterioro funcional por sexo, los síntomas individuales y el diagnóstico subumbral se asociaban con mayor deterioro funcional en los niños que en las niñas. Conclusión: La "oposicionalidad" pueden estar midiendo variables diferentes en niños y en niñas, y esta posibilidad se debe tener en cuenta para identificar correctamente este problema en cada sexo. Palabras clave: Deterioro funcional; niños preescolares y escolares; sexo; trastorno negativista desafiante. Abstract:Objective: To explore whether the symptoms and diagnosis of Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), as defined in the DSM-IV, are equally impairing for girls and boys from the general population in the early school years. Method: A sample of 852 three to seven-year-old schoolchildren were screened out for a double-phase design. A total of 251 families were assessed with a diagnostic interview and with measures of functional impairment. Results: ODD symptoms and diagnosis were equally prevalent in boys and girls, but three-to five-year-old girls had a higher prevalence of subthreshold ODD. There were no significant differences between boys and girls in the impact on use of services, treatment received and family burden associated with ODD symptoms and diagnosis. Although diagnosis of ODD was not associated with higher functional impairment by sex, individual symptoms and subthreshold diagnosis were more impairing for boys than for girls. Conclusion: Oppositionality may be measuring different things for boys and girls, and this possibility must be taken into account with a view to the correct identification of this problem in each sex.
