520 |a A survey of 258 North Carolina families with children (ages 3 to 12) having emotional disturbances focused on: (1) the wide range of characteristics of the child, family, and community; (2) characteristics that families bring to their situation as well as characteristics that can be changed by experience and the use of resources and services; and (3) a model permitting the testing of specific, causal links between variables. Following an overview, discussion of conceptual and methodological issues involved in defining the study population, and a brief literature review leading to the formation of the family caregiving model which served as the study's basis are described. The model identifies three major stages in the family caregiving process: antecedents, mediators, and outcomes. Study findings are reported in the following categories: demographic characteristics, severity of the child's disability, perception of the child's positive contribution to the family, coping patterns, relative and social supports, use of formal supports, and caregiver stress. Appended are the descriptive statistics for item and scale scores and the data collection questionnaire that was used. (Contains 55 references.) (DB)
