Abstract:

To investigate the relationship between parents’ marital satisfaction, children’s sense of security, children’s coping style and children’s post-traumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) after Typhoon Lekima, this study used self-reported questionnaires to assess 852 children and their parents. The results showed that parents’ marital satisfaction had an indirect prediction on children’s PTSS through children’s sense of security. Moreover, the study also found that parents’ marital satisfaction had an indirect prediction on children’s PTSS via children’s sense of security through children’s positive coping style. However, coping style did not play a mediating role in parents’ marital satisfaction and their children’s PTSS. These results suggest that parents’ marital satisfaction plays an important protective role in children’s PTSS, while children’s sense of security and positive coping style play a mediating role.

Key words: parental marital satisfaction, security, coping style, PTSS

摘要：

为考察父母婚姻满意度、儿童安全感、儿童应对方式与儿童创伤后应激症状(PTSS)之间的关系，研究采用自陈式量表对利奇马台风后852名儿童及其父母进行测查。结果发现：父母婚姻满意度可以通过儿童安全感间接地负向预测儿童PTSS，还可以通过儿童安全感经过儿童积极应对方式间接地负向预测儿童PTSS。但是，父母婚姻满意度不能直接预测儿童PTSS，也不能通过应对方式间接地预测儿童PTSS。结果说明，父母婚姻满意度对儿童PTSS起到重要的保护作用，儿童的安全感和积极应对方式在其中起中介作用。
