Medication Adherence in Pediatric Asthma: Reasoning, Responsibility, and Behavior

McQuaid, E. L.·2003·Journal of Pediatric Psychology

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To assess child adherence to preventive asthma medications; to investigate relations between knowledge, reasoning about asthma, and responsibility for management and adherence; and to determine the association between adherence and morbidity. METHODS: Participants were 106 children with asthma and their parents. Medication adherence was electronically monitored for 1 month. Participants completed self-report measures. Children were interviewed to assess reasoning about asthma. RESULTS: Children's adherence was approximately 48% of prescribed doses. Adherence was negatively related to age (r = -.21, p <.05); minority status, F(1, 98) = 7.55, p <.01; and morbidity (r = -.26, p <.01). Age was associated with increased child knowledge (r =.47, p <.001), reasoning about asthma (tau =.23, p <.01), and responsibility for asthma management (r =.44, p <.01). These variables were not associated with adherence. CONCLUSIONS: Although older children know more about asthma and assume more responsibility for disease management, their adherence is lower than that of younger children. No association was found between adherence and child knowledge, reasoning about asthma, or responsibility for asthma management.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
