自閉症個案的社交互動行為一直以來為國內外許多學者的研究重點,其對親子關係發展的影響也一併 受到重視。相關的研究在國外行之有年,許多文獻均證實正向的情感表達有助於親子關係的建立,而 良善的親子關係同時也對照顧者的情緒及心理 / 生理安適感產生正面的影響。有感於國內自閉症親子 關係研究多數著重於孩童個案的現況,本研究將研究範疇擴大至青少年以上的自閉症個案及其照顧 者。研究參與者為 60 位台灣地區 10 31 歲青少年和成年自閉症個案的母親,以自填式問卷的方式 了解母親與個案的互動情感模式,及可能影響到親子關係和母親安適感的個人特質等因子。研究結果 顯示,青少年和成年自閉症個案對母親的信任感及母親對他們的喜愛在親子的互動情感模式中扮演著 極為重要的角色,個案的年齡和日常生活功能獨立程度與親子關係品質呈現顯著相關。另外照顧者的 情緒狀態,對孩子的擔心、憂鬱程度及照顧負擔等心理安適感,也都與親子關係品質有顯著的關聯。 本研究結果有助於瞭解影響親子關係的潛在因子,並支持親子關係品質和母親安適感間的關聯性,未 來可再深入了解其他相關之核心因子,以期能更全面的了解自閉症個案與照顧者的親子關係。
