OBJECTIVE: Consistent family rules and routines promote positive adaptation to stress and may be protective to child emotional and behavioral functioning. Few studies have quantified family engagement in these behaviors during pediatric cancer treatment or examined associations with child emotional and behavioral health.
METHODS: In this cross-sectional observational study, 86 primary caregivers of youth ages 2-14 years (M = 7.9) with an initial diagnosis of cancer within 16 weeks reported on their frequency of engagement in family rules and routines (e.g., sleep, schoolwork, and meal routines) before their child's cancer diagnosis and their current frequency of engagement in the same routines. Caregivers also reported demographics, psychosocial distress, and child emotional and behavioral health outcomes. Analyses examined demographic and psychosocial factors associated with engagement in rules and routines during cancer treatment, and associations with child emotional and behavioral health.
RESULTS: Families reported a lower frequency of engagement in rules and routines during cancer treatment, compared to before treatment (mean difference 0.8 SDs [95% confidence interval 0.7-1.1 SDs]). Caregiver factors associated with lower engagement in rules and routines during treatment included being married, having lower educational attainment, and higher levels of psychosocial distress. Families who engaged in higher levels of rules and routines during treatment reported fewer child externalizing and behavioral challenges. There was limited evidence of association between family rules and routines and child internalizing outcomes.
CONCLUSIONS: Results found that engaging in family rules and routines during cancer treatment was associated with fewer child behavioral challenges during treatment. Future directions include longitudinal examinations of family rules, routines, and child emotional/behavioral outcomes to examine directional impact over time.
