The following text should read:
Page 477: Caregivers’ Psychological Functioning, first paragraph
The second sentence: A persistent theme in the literature indicates that poorer caregiver psychological functioning is associated with worse asthma outcomes for children.
The fifth sentence: Similarly, lower caregiver mental health scores were associated with caregiver reports of their children experiencing more asthma symptoms and more acute care visits for asthma in the previous year, when compared to those caregivers with higher mental health scores (Wood et al., 2002).
Page 478: Caregivers’ Psychological Functioning, first full paragraph
The fourth sentence: One type of asthma outcome that has been studied, with some controversy (Annett, 2001; Bender, 1996), is children’s and parents’ reporting of the impact of asthma on the family, including quality of life.
Page 479: Emotional Regulation, first paragraph, fourth sentence:
However, difficulties with emotion regulation were related to demonstrated greater asthma severity.
Page 479: Child Adjustment and Psychopathology, last sentence: to next page:
They concluded that, in comparison to healthy children, children with asthma are at greater risk for having difficulties in behavioral adjustment, with greater evidence for internalizing, rather than externalizing, problems.
Page 480, Child Adjustment and Psychopathology, first full paragraph, first sentence
It is unknown whether more severe asthma leads to behavioral difficulties or whether poorer psychological functioning leads to more severe asthma.
Page 480, Additional Factors Influencing Family Functioning, second paragraph,
Parents’ perceived social support, children’s absence from school, and children’s behavior problems were the strongest predictors of parents’ perceptions of how the child’s illness affects the family.
The publisher regrets these errors.
