“…Parents of boys reported equivalent nurturance regardless of the ability status of the child. Taken together, these findings build on work that suggests that parenting strategies and family functioning may differ in families with a child with an NDC from families with TD children (e.g., Arim et al, 2012;Blum et al, 1991;Britner, Morog, Pianta, & Marvin, 2003) by suggest ing that girls with NDCs may not have as much access to nurturing parenting practices. At least in childhood, such prac tices may benefit girls by creating a warmer and more sensitive caregiving environment.…”

Objective: This study tested the hypothesis that gender differences in parent-reported nurturance of children would be attenuated in families of children with neurodevelopmental conditions (NDCs). Method: In this cross-sectional study, participants included 49 (29 male) children diagnosed with an NDC and 60 (30 male) typically developing (TD) children. Children in the NDC group had a diagnosis of cerebral palsy (CP; n = 41) or spina bifida (SB; n = 8). Parental nurturance was measured using the nurturance subscale of the Parenting Dimensions Inventory (PDI; Power, 1991). Data were analyzed using a 2 X 2 (gender X diagnosis) analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with child age as the covariate. Results: As a simple main effect, parents reported more nurturing behavior toward TD girls than TD boys. However, girls with an NDC received less nurturance, thereby eliminating the gender difference in parental nurturance in the NDC sample. This pattem was reflected in the larger ANCOVA as a 2-way interaction between diagnosis and gender. Group differences in other PDI subscales were not statistically significant. Conclusions and Significance: This pattern of results suggests that the parents of girls with NDCs may be less nurturing toward them, thereby attenuating gender differences observed in families with TD children. Findings highlight the need for more research on the gendered dynamics in families with a child with an NDC to develop systemic models of family functioning and targeted parenting interventions for this group.

“…Tačiau jau bene šim-tmetį besitęsiančios diskusijos dėl gimimo eiliškumo reikšmės asmens psichologinėms savybėms labiausiai siejamos su Adlerio vardu. Adleris teigė, kad, vertinant žmogų, svarbu žinoti aplinkybes, kuriomis jis augo, ypač tai, kokią padėtį jis ar ji užėmė tarp brolių ir seserų, jei jų turėjo (Adler, 1958;Ansbacher & Ansbacher, 1964). Kad ir kelintas šeimoje būtų gimęs vaikas, sunkiausių padarinių turi jo noras siekti pranašumo prieš kitus vaikus; vaiko aplinkybės ypač pasikeičia patyrus vadinamąjį "nuvertimą nuo sosto" gimus kitam vaikui (Adler, 1958).…”

“…Dėl šių priežas-čių, vartojant didžiojo penketo asmenybės apibūdinimo terminus, pirmagimiai yra daugiau pasiekiantys ir sąmoningesni, o antrieji vaikai -maištingesni ir atviresni naujoms patirtims (Sulloway, 1996). Lietuvoje panašiu metu gimimo eiliškumu -kaip individualios raidos veiksniu -domėjosi Bagdonas, Greblikienė ir Kaniavienė (1996). Jų atliktų tyrimų rezultatai ir aštuntojo XX amžiaus dešimtmečio psichologinių tyrimų apžval-ga rodo, kad pirmagimiams ne tik būdingi didesni intelekto (ypač kalbinių gebėjimų) įverčiai, bet ir kiek didesnis internalumas, rodantis mažesnį priklausomumą nuo aplinkinių ar kitų mažai kontroliuojamų veiksnių (Bagdonas ir kt., 1996).…”

“…Kartu bandoma, nors ir nedaug, gilintis į pokyčius šeimoje. Nustatyta, jog tėvų pasirenkamas auklėjimo stilius priklauso nuo vaiko lyties, vaiko gimimo eiliškumo ir aplinkos paramos: tėvų elgesys yra mažiau nuoseklus ir veiksmingas, jei vaikas turi elgesio sunkumų ir šeimos vaikų sekoje yra gimęs vėliau (Arim et al, 2012). Van Volkom, Machiz ir Reich (2011) taip pat analizavo vidinę šeimos dinamiką.…”

“…Research has shown that perceived parental support predicted higher global self-worth and social competence, and fewer externalizing behavior problems in children [44], whereas harsh parenting was associated with difficulties in emotion regulation skills, and both higher internalizing and externalizing behavior problems. Our previous research has shown that parents of children with both NDDs and externalizing behaviour problems (EBPs) reported less consistency and more ineffective parenting behaviors as compared to parents of children with neither health conditions, even after controlling for child, parent and family socio-demographic characteristics [45], as well as other factors including family and social context [46]. In contrast, although parents of children with NDDs reported less positive interactions with their child compared to parents of children with neither NDDs nor EBPs, this difference disappeared after controlling for socio-demographic characteristics, parental health and social context factors, such as family functioning and social support [46].…”

Psychosocial functioning differs for children with NDDs and/or EBPs. Children with both NDDs and EBPs appear to report poorer psychosocial functioning compared to their peers with neither condition. However, it is important to consider the context of socio-demographic characteristics, parenting behaviors and their interactions to understand differences in children's psychosocial functioning. Implication for Rehabilitation: Practitioners may wish to consider complexity in child health by examining a comprehensive set of determinants of psychosocial outcomes as well as comorbid conditions, such as neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) and externalizing behavior problems (EBPs). Other health care professionals working with children with NDDs and/or EBPs may wish to consider several child characteristics together, not just the child's health conditions but also child sex and age. Developing specific intervention programs that improve the psychosocial functioning of children with complex health problems appears to be warranted.
