Self Image, Coping and Familial Interaction Among Asthmatic Children and Adolescents in Israel.

Brook, U.; Tepper, I.

Patient Education and Counseling, v30 n2 p187-92 Feb 1997

Self-esteem, modes of coping, and interfamilial relationships of asthmatic children and adolescents were investigated (N=51; mean age=12.26). Asthmatic children have lower scores on psychological factors, coping with stress, and family interaction measures. Medical and psychological findings are related, and psychological and educational support during treatment are recommended. (Author/EMK)
