Abstract

Abstract : Background: Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by unknown origin arthritis that begins before the age of 16 years (1). Therefore, families are often affected by the disease of children. Parents and children often disagree with assessing different aspects of disease activity in JIA (2). Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between children with JIA and their parents' psychosocial status. Methods: A total of 345 children with JIA and their parents were included in the study (n = 690). Juvenile Arthritis Biopsychosocial Questionnaire (JAB-Q) was administered to the subjects (3). The psychosocial status of the individuals was evaluated by this questionnaires. Results: The mean age of children included in the study (n = 345) was 12.32 3.76 years. While the median value of the Child Psychosocial score was 10 (min: 0 max: 38), the median value of the Parent Psychosocial score was 6 (min: 0 max: 20). Correlation coefficients and statistical significance were calculated by using the Pearson test. A positive low correlation was found between the psychosocial status of the child and parents (r = 0.273, p <0.001) (Table 1 ). Conclusion: It was observed that there was a low relationship between the psychosocial status of children and parents. It was concluded that child and parents psychosocial status may be affected by other variables such as high disease activity, school attendance. Further studies are needed in this area including different variables and interaction psychosocial status. References: [1] Prakken, B., Albani, S., & Martini, A. (2011).
