Abstract:
An evaluation of a Family Asthma Program revealed significant gains in relevant knowledge and management skills for parents, but not 4- to 12-year-old children with asthma. There were no significant differences between program group families and two other groups of families with asthmatic children at post-test time in regard to various characteristics of family stress and coping. Suggestions for the improvement of Family Asthma Programs are discussed.
