Foster parents need access to supports and resources in order to be satisfied with their caregiving role and continue providing foster care services. However, they often experience multiple demands in their role as a substitute caregiver that could lead to stress. Child behaviors especially may be a significant factor when considering sources of strain and may be a potential risk factor for negative outcomes such as dissatisfaction or the decision to discontinue providing foster care. The purpose of this study was to examine whether child disruptive behaviors moderated or influenced the nature or strength of the relationship between foster parent supports and satisfaction as a caregiver as well as intent to continue fostering. The sample consisted of 155 licensed foster caregivers from across the United States. Child behaviors served as a significant moderator between some types of supports and satisfaction. Implications for future research, practice, and policy are discussed. 相似文献

This study investigated teachers’ experiences of closeness during interactions with the group of children in child care. Structured interviews were conducted with 24 female teachers who were teaching children between the ages of three and five (mean age = 3.9) regarding their perceptions of closeness with the group of children in the class. Qualitative analyses of the interviews revealed a group solidarity domain of teacher–group relationships composed of three dimensions which comprise emotional solidarity, consensual solidarity, and functional solidarity, with emotional solidarity most dominant in the teachers’ perceptions. This group solidarity domain was interpreted as being consistent with qualities found in Grusec and Davidov’s group participation domain. The findings that, teachers’ closeness with the group of children in the class were dominated by the emotional dimension is similar to previous research results which report the predominance of personal and intimate interactions in relational closeness between teachers and individual children. Teachers described intentional strategies for managing close group relationships that made use of interactional histories between the teachers and children in the class. These discoveries provide a new perspective on teacher closeness with groups, an area of research not often investigated. It also provides insights into the importance teachers place on connecting emotionally with children when they are with the collective group in the classroom. 相似文献

Infants interact reciprocally with their caregivers from the moment of birth. The actions of one affect the other in a manner
that resembles an intricate dance. The article proposes a sociocultural model of reciprocity that focuses on the interdependent
relationship between infants and their caregivers. Relevant variables include the age, sex, developmental history, and behavioral
style of the infant and the caregiver's knowledge of infants' development, level of experience and education, disciplinary
style, and temperament. Further, the influence of families and cultural expectations on caregiving practices are discussed
within the framework of the model. After a review of the literature, selected activities are suggested to promote infants'
interaction with their social world. 相似文献

Too often, guidelines for quality child care emphasize the physical site, the equipment, safety, and the staff-child ratio.
However, to ensure high-quality child care for our children, the personal and professional attributes of quality caregivers
must be considered. The most important caregiver attributes are discussed, as one mother describes her search for child care. 相似文献

完善上海居家高龄失能老人亲属照顾者的社会支持系统 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
亲属照护居家高龄失能老人仍是中国现阶段和今后较长时间内的主要照护形式。目前国内关于老年照护的研究集中于老年人本身的照护需求,而对亲属照顾者的照护状况、困难和需求研究不够深入。"高龄体弱老人照顾者需求和心理健康状况"课题组于2010年4—10月对上海市720名户籍城市居家高龄失能老人及其主要亲属照顾者所进行的抽样调查表明,目前上海居家高龄失能老人主要亲属照顾者的照护呈现女性居多、中老年退休者为主、经济条件适中、照护时间较长和照护责任心强的特点。照顾者在照顾过程中面对生理、心理和经济的压力虽然能够积极采取自我解压的方式,并从家庭获得支持,但同时对政府和社会提供支持也提出了迫切需求。为此,需要通过健全社会医疗保障体系,强化小区为基础的居家服务,加强照护知识技能培训,组建照顾者互助小组,完善以亲属照顾者需求为中心的社会支持系统。 相似文献

This study investigated factors related to the quality of early‐childhood practitioners’ interactions with infants in play and routine contexts. Participants were 24 practitioners working with 9–20‐month‐old infants in long day‐care infant programmes. Video‐recordings of their interactions with a nominated infant during play and in routine contexts were rated for levels of sensitivity and stimulation. Practitioners were asked to interpret extracts of this video footage and these interpretations were rated according to the complexity of the interpretive narrative. Results indicated relationships between practitioner qualification, their levels of interpretive complexity and the quality of their interactions. The quality of play interactions was significantly higher than that of routine interaction. The implications of these findings in relation to the provision of high‐quality infant day‐care programmes are discussed. 相似文献

This study examined how doulas adapt to challenges in client’s labors. There were 104 Canadian and 92 American doulas who responded to a survey distributed at a doula conference. We report results from open-ended questions in which doulas describe how they manage changes deviating from the mother’s birth plan and how they navigate differences of opinion between themselves and providers. Four themes emerged: giving nonjudgmental support, assisting informed decision making, acting as a facilitator, and issues with advocacy. Although 30% of doulas said that advocacy and information giving could result in conflict with providers, doulas reported working within their scope of practice and striving to be part of the team. Issues in doula responsibility and patient advocacy remain, and ongoing role clarification is needed. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: There were three aims: (1). assess the prevalence of reported exposure to negative caregiver strategies in a community-based African-American population, (2). examine the sources of variation in caregiver parenting strategies, including demographic variables and child characteristics, (3). investigate whether mental disorders in young adulthood may differ based on reported degree of exposure to negative strategies. METHOD: The participants were 1197 African-Americans involved in a 1999-2001 young adult follow-up (age M=19.6, SD=.6) of an evaluation of school-based interventions in the Baltimore, MD metropolitan area. Measures included teacher-report of child aggression in first grade, parent-report of demographic variables in first and sixth grade, and young adult self-report of symptomatology, suicidal behaviors, and childhood caregiver discipline strategies. RESULTS: Fifty-four percent of the sample reported some use of physical discipline by caregivers. Lower family income and younger caregiver age, as well as teacher reports of child aggression, were related to reports of caregiver's high use of negative strategies. In addition, young adults who reported a high rate of negative caregiver strategies had a significantly increased risk for psychopathology and were over twice as likely to have experienced a history of suicidal ideation than those reporting low exposure.CONCLUSIONS: The results demonstrate the importance of examining variation in this population, with the poorest and the youngest using negative parenting strategies more frequently. In addition, the present study replicated previous findings of the link between negative caregiver discipline strategies and psychopathology. This association appears robust across diverse populations. The implications for preventive interventions are discussed. 相似文献
