The Father's Part: Influences of Paternal Psychopathology and Parenting Behavior on Child and Adolescent Well-Being. Healthcare (Basel) 2023; 11:2119. [PMID: 37570360 PMCID: PMC10418667 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare11152119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2023] [Revised: 07/14/2023] [Accepted: 07/22/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Family influences on child quality of life (QoL) are increasingly understood. Parenting behavior and parent individual psychopathology are among the established predictors of offspring mental health. However, literature often addresses these factors as 'parental', lacking further gender-specific differentiation while predominantly studying maternal aspects. Social and biological fathers are still underrepresented in family research. The aim of this study was to analyze paternal contributions to child well-being. A total of 197 father/mother-dyads gave a standardized self-report on parenting behavior and their own psychopathology at child primary school age (t1; 6-10 y). Ratings were compared mutually and associated with child self-rated QoL at t1 and adolescence (t2; 12-14 y). Fathers and mothers differed in psychopathology and most parenting behavior dimensions (positive parenting, involvement, responsible parenting, poor monitoring, and corporal punishment). Father psychopathology made a relevant predictive contribution to girls' QoL at t2. Boys' t1 QoL was significantly influenced by maternal parenting factors (positivity and corporal punishment). Compared to mothers, fathers are faced with different individual stressors; paternal parenting behavior is different, while fathers' influences are significant, particularly for daughters. Father-addressed pre- and intervention programs in child psychotherapeutic treatment are of high relevance.

Abstract
Offspring of mentally ill parents is at heightened risk for psychological symptoms. The identification of environmental factors that predict their mental health is crucial for the development of preventive and therapeutic measures. In the current study, we addressed the combined role of family functioning and social support by taking mentally ill patients’, their partners’, and children’s perspectives into account. The cross-sectional sample included n=195 families (195 patients, 127 partners, and 295 children). Family members completed questionnaires related to family functioning, social support as well as parental and child psychopathology. We conducted multilevel analyses to investigate the associations with internalizing and externalizing problems in children. Family functioning and social support were significantly associated with child internalizing and externalizing problems. However, results varied depending on the rating perspective. We found significant interaction effects of family functioning and social support on child psychopathology. The findings point to the importance of family functioning and social support as potential targets for interventions. Findings should be replicated in future longitudinal studies.

Abstract
PURPOSE Children of parents with mental health problems (CPM) have an increased risk for impaired health-related quality of life (HRQoL). This study aims at investigating the age- and gender-specific course of HRQoL and at exploring predictors of HRQoL in CPM based on longitudinal data (baseline, 1-year and 2-year follow-up) of a German population-based sample. METHODS Longitudinal data from the German BELLA study was analyzed (n = 1429; aged 11 to 17 years at baseline). The SCL-S-9 in combination with the cutoff for the General Severity Index (GSI) from the longer SCL-90-R served to identify CPM (n = 312). At first, we compared domain-specific HRQoL according to the KIDSCREEN-27 in CPM versus Non-CPM. Focusing on CPM, we used individual growth modeling to investigate the age and gender-specific course, and to explore effects of risk and (personal, familial and social) resource factors on self-reported HRQoL in CPM. RESULTS Self-reported HRQoL was reduced in CPM compared to Non-CPM in all domains, but in social support & peers. However, a minimal important difference was only reached in girls for the domain autonomy & parent relation. Internalizing and externalizing mental health problems were associated with impaired HRQoL in CPM. Self-efficacy, social support and family climate were identified as significant resources, but parental mental health problems over time were not associated with any investigated domain of HRQoL in CPM. CONCLUSIONS Adolescent female CPM may be especially at risk for reduced HRQoL. When developing support programs for CPM, self-efficacy, social support and family climate should be considered, HRQoL and mental health problems in CPM should be addressed.

Abstract
(1) Background: Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is frequently reduced in children of parents with a mental illness (COPMI). Child self- and parent proxy-ratings vary with raters’ characteristics and facets of HRQoL. This study aimed at analyzing risk and protective factors associated with HRQoL in COPMI, and at examining the magnitude, direction, and predictors of child–parent agreement. (2) Methods: Analyses were based on baseline data of the German CHIMPS (children of parents with a mental illness) project with n = 134 parents diagnosed with mental illness and n = 198 children and adolescents aged 8 to 18 years. (3) Results: Both children and parents reported significantly lower HRQoL than the reference population, particularly for the child’s physical and psychological well-being. Parents’ proxy-report indicated a lower HRQoL than the children’s self-report. Child and parental psychopathology, social support, and the child’s age significantly predicted HRQoL. Interrater agreement was satisfactory and better for observable aspects like physical well-being and school environment. The child’s gender-identity and mental health significantly predicted child–parent agreement. (4) Conclusions: Parental psychopathology significantly reduces children’s HRQoL. Interventions should promote resilience in children by targeting risk and protective factors. Child–parent agreement emphasizes the need to obtain both self- and proxy-reports, whenever possible.

Abstract
Zusammenfassung. Theoretischer Hintergrund: Kinder in Pflegeverhältnissen (KiP) sind häufig schon früh im Leben verschiedenen Risikofaktoren ausgesetzt, die ihre weitere Entwicklung prägen können. Fragestellung: Ziel ist die Analyse der Stärke der Zusammenhänge unterschiedlicher Risikofaktoren mit der psychopathologischen Entwicklung von KiP. Methode: Es wurden zunächst eine Reihe von Risikofaktoren erhoben, ein Jahr später das Ausmaß an internalisierenden und externalisierenden Verhaltensproblemen, sowie die kindliche Beziehungsgestaltung bei Kindern in Familien mit und ohne Pflegeaufgaben untersucht. Ergebnisse: Diese sozial-emotionalen Entwicklungsdimensionen wiesen über den untersuchten Zeitraum hinweg eine hohe korrelative Stabilität auf. Keiner der untersuchten Risikofaktoren trug signifikant zur weiteren Varianzaufklärung bei, KiP wiesen zu allen Messzeitpunkten höhere Belastungswerte auf. Schlussfolgerung: Die Stabilität und erhöhten Ausprägungen der Verhaltensprobleme sind gerade für Familien mit Pflegeaufgaben eine Herausforderung.

Abstract
Zusammenfassung. Zeigt sich in Deutschland ein Zusammenhang zwischen elterlichen Belastungen und emotionalen und Verhaltensauffälligkeiten bei Kindern und Jugendlichen? Mit den Daten der ersten Folgebefragung des Kinder- und Jugendgesundheitssurveys (KiGGS Welle 1) wurde der Zusammenhang von 13 subjektiv berichteten elterlichen Belastungsformen mit einem auffälligen SDQ-Gesamtproblem- und Impactwert bei 3- bis 17-Jährigen analysiert (n=10891). Eltern mit psychischen Erkrankungen, niedrigem sozioökonomischen Status sowie Alleinerziehende berichten überdurchschnittlich häufig von Belastungen. Belastete Eltern haben eine deutlich höhere Chance ein als auffällig eingestuftes Kind zu haben als nicht belastete Eltern; dies trifft auch nach Kontrolle für familiäre Faktoren zu. Die Reduzierung elterlicher Belastungen kann einen wichtigen Ansatzpunkt darstellen, um die psychische Gesundheit von Kindern und Jugendlichen gerade aus sozial benachteiligten Familien zu verbessern.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate, in adolescents referred for psychiatric services, the associations of initial self-esteem and family functioning with level and change of quality of life (QoL) over a 3-year period, over and above the effect of their emotional problems. METHODS Of 1648 eligible 13-18 years old patients attending the child and adolescent psychiatric clinic (CAP) at least once, 717 (54.8% females) were enrolled at baseline (a response rate of 43.5%). Self- and parent reports on the McMaster Family Assessment Device were obtained. Adolescents reported self-esteem on the Rosenberg Scale, and emotional problems on the Symptom Check List-5. Adolescents completed the Inventory of Life Quality in Children and Adolescents (ILC). After 3 years, 570 adolescents again completed the ILC, and for 418 adolescents parent information was available. The longitudinal analysis sample of 418 adolescents was representative of the baseline sample for age, gender, emotional problems, and QoL. We used modified growth-model analysis, adjusted for SES, age, gender and time of contact with CAP, where residual variances for ILC at baseline and follow-up were fixed to 0. RESULTS A poorer family functioning at baseline, reported by parents, was significantly associated with worsening QoL during the 3 years follow-up period (p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Parents have important knowledge about their families that may reflect long-term influences on QoL development in adolescent psychiatric patients. Health care providers and policy makers should optimize treatment outcomes by addressing family functioning in adolescents with emotional problems.

Abstract
Zusammenfassung. Es wird überprüft, ob die Teilnahme am Gruppenprogramm SEEK (Seelische Erkrankungen, Eltern und Kinder) für psychisch erkrankte Eltern im Rahmen einer stationären Eltern-Kind-Behandlung kurz- und längerfristige additive Behandlungseffekte erbringt hinsichtlich psychischer Symptome der Eltern (erfasst mit der Hopkins-Symptom-Checkliste-25; HSCL-25), der elterlichen Stressbelastung (erfasst mit dem Eltern-Belastungs-Inventar; EBI) sowie psychischer und körperlicher Symptome des Kindes (erfasst mit der Child Behavior Checklist; CBCL). Die Vergleichsgruppe (n = 11), die das übliche Behandlungsprogramm durchlief, und die Interventionsgruppe (n = 15), die zusätzlich an SEEK teilnahm, werden zu drei Messzeitpunkten (t1 bei Aufnahme, t2 bei Entlassung und t3 sechs Monate nach Entlassung) miteinander verglichen. Additive Effekte des Gruppenprogramms können bei dieser Untersuchung im umfangreichen stationären Behandlungssetting nicht belegt werden. Beide Gruppen erscheinen (mit Ausnahme zweier CBCL-Skalen im t1-t2-Vergleich) vergleichbar bezüglich ihres Behandlungserfolgs. Es zeigen sich sowohl kurzfristige Effekte als auch längerfristig stabile Effekte der stationären Eltern-Kind-Behandlung im 6-Monats-Follow-Up.

Abstract
Children of parents with mental health problems (CPM) have an increased risk for behavioral and psychological problems. This study investigated the age- and gender-specific course as well as predictors of mental health problems in CPM using the longitudinal data (baseline 1- and 2-year follow-ups) of a German general population sample from the BELLA study. Children and adolescents aged 11-17 years (at baseline) who had a parent with mental health problems (n = 325) were analyzed. The mental health problems of the children were assessed by the self-reported version of the strengths and difficulties questionnaire (SDQ). We used individual growth modeling to investigate the age- and gender-specific course, and the effects of risk as well as personal, familial and social protective factors on self-reported mental health problems in CPM. Additionally, data were examined differentiating internalizing and externalizing mental health problems in CPM. Results indicated that female compared to male CPM showed increasing mental health problems with increasing age. Mental health problems in CPM were associated with lower self-efficacy, worse family climate and less social competence over time. Internalizing problems were associated with lower self-efficacy, less social competence and more severe parental mental health problems. Externalizing problems were associated with lower self-efficacy, worse family climate and lower social competence. The main limitations of the study are the short time period (2 years) covered and the report of mental health problems by only one parent. Our findings should be considered in the development of treatment and prevention programs for mental health problems in CPM.

Abstract
Zusammenfassung. Vor dem Hintergrund der komplexen Wechselwirkung zwischen der Entstehung und Aufrechterhaltung psychischer Störungen im Kindesalter einerseits und familiären Kontextbedingungen andererseits, bieten Eltern-Kind-Stationen die vielversprechende Möglichkeit das familiäre Umfeld intensiv in die kinderpsychiatrische Behandlung mit einzubeziehen. Um die Wirksamkeit dieser speziellen Therapieform zu untersuchen, wurden im Rahmen einer monozentrischen Fragebogenstudie unter klinischen Routinebedingungen im Ein-Gruppen-Prä-Post-Design anhand einer Stichprobe von 60 Familien die kindliche Symptombelastung (CBCL) und das elterliche Stresserleben (ESF) zu drei Zeitpunkten (Diagnostikblock, Beginn Therapieblock, Therapieende) erhoben. Während sich in der Wartezeit bis Therapiebeginn keine bedeutsamen Veränderungen zeigten, reduzierten sich im Verlauf der Behandlung sowohl die kindlichen Verhaltensauffälligkeiten als auch das elterliche Stresserleben signifikant. Damit liefern die vorliegenden Ergebnisse nicht nur einen Hinweis auf die therapeutische Effektivität kinderpsychiatrischer Eltern-Kind-Stationen, sondern untermauern bisherige Untersuchungen zur engen Verzahnung von kindlichen Verhaltensauffälligkeiten und elterlichen Stresserleben.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mental health problems (MHP) of parents are associated with an increased risk of psychological and developmental difficulties in their children. This study aims at analyzing population-based data of parents with MHP and their children and the effects of associated risk factors in order to further targeted preventive and therapeutic interventions. METHODS The BELLA study is the mental health module of the German National Health Interview and Examination Survey among Children and Adolescents. MHP in parents and in their children as well as associated risk factors were examined in a sample of N = 1158 parents with children aged 11 to 17 years. RESULTS Parental MHP were identified in 18.6% of the sample. Risk factors associated with parental MHP were low SES, parental unemployment, stressful life events, parental daily strain, parental chronic disease, and child MHP. A rate of 19.1% of the children of parents with MHP reported MHP themselves, the corresponding rate among children of parents without MHP was 7.7%. In multiple regression analyses the risk for children of parents with MHP to report MHP themselves was almost two times higher than the risk of children of parents without MHP. Other significant associations with child MHP included gender, the parents' age, and stressful life events. CONCLUSIONS Parental MHP constitute a significant risk for the mental health of their children. Targeted screening methods and preventive interventions are needed.

Abstract
Zusammenfassung. Die Familienfunktionalität und die Familienbeziehungen werden aus der Perspektive der Familie (erkrankter Elternteil, Lebenspartner, Kind) mit dem Allgemeinen Familienbogen FB-A und aus der Perspektive der Therapeuten mit der GARF-Skala erfasst. Die Stichprobe besteht aus 19 Familien in der Interventionsgruppe und 14 Familien in der Kontrollgruppe. In die Analyse gingen Daten aus drei Messzeitpunkten (vor der Intervention, nach Abschluss der Intervention und ein Jahr nach Abschluss der Intervention) ein. Die Familienfunktionalität aus der Perspektive des erkrankten Elternteils verbesserte sich in der Interventionsgruppe im Vergleich zur Kontrollgruppe in der Skala Aufgabenerfüllung und in den Beziehungsskalen Emotionalität und Affektive Beziehungsaufnahme. Eine Verbesserung der Familienfunktionalität aus der Therapeutenperspektive wird deutlich, aber der Effekt durch einen gegenläufige Veränderung der Kontrollgruppe und einen signifikanten Interaktionseffekt verhindert. Im Verlauf über drei Messzeitpunkte verbesserten sich aus der Perspektive der erkrankten Elternteile der Gesamtwert, die Kommunikation, die Aufgabenerfüllung und die Werte und Normen. Die Verbesserungen zeigten sich jedoch nur aus der Perspektive der erkrankten Elternteile. Die Veränderungen aus der Perspektive der Lebenspartner und Kinder erreichen keine Signifikanz.
