Parent psychological states predict changes in inflammatory markers in children with asthma and healthy children
2008, Brain, Behavior, and ImmunityCitation Excerpt :The present data did not find support for the hypothesis that one reason for these associations is because of the effects of parent psychological distress on child distress, which in turn influences children’s inflammatory profiles. Although child distress may be one of the most obvious pathways, given the links between child anxiety/depression and asthma morbidity (Fritz et al., 1987; Goodwin et al., 2003; Kaptein, 1982; Miller, 1987; Ortega et al., 2002; Strunk et al., 1985), our findings as well as others suggest that there may be other pathways explaining links between parental distress and child inflammatory profiles (Wade et al., 1997). For example, Wright et al. (1998), suggest that parent perceived stress may have effects on children’s perceptions of control and self-efficacy, both of which are predictive of health outcomes.
