Abstract

Background: Based on previous studies reporting language disorders associated with maternal overload and changes in parenting practices, this study aimed to investigate maternal gatekeeping and overprotectiveness in developmental language disorder (DLD).

Methods: Forty-five children with DLD and 46 children with typical language development (TLD) children were included in this study. To assess the level of maternal gatekeeping and overprotectiveness, we employed Maternal Gatekeeping Scale (MGS) and Parent Attitude Scale (PAS). Additionally, participant's language abilities were evaluated using Test of Early Language Development-3 (TELD-3), and their overall developmental status was assessed using Denver Development Screening Test-2 (DDST-II). Immitance-metric assessment and auto-acoustic emission testing were also used to assess hearing functions.

Results: Mean PAS-overprotection (34.1 ± 8.4, 24.3 ± 5.9, P < .001) and MGS total scores (141.7 ± 24.1, 115.7 ± 20.5, P < .001) in children with DLD were significantly higher than those of the TLD. Factors affecting MGS scores were investigated using Multiple linear regression analysis. DLD diagnosis (β = 14.195, P = .029), PAS-overprotection (β = 1.158, P = .001) and family income level (β = 9.643, P = .045) were found as significantly associated with MGS scores. In addition, PAS-overprotective obtained to have a partial mediating role in the relationship between DLD diagnosis and MGS scores (β = .391, P < .001).

Conclusion: Present study reveals that maternal gatekeeping is associated with DLD and overprotection. These findings underscore the importance of evaluating motherhood practices and fostering independency supportive attitudes in the care for children with DLD.

有语言发育障碍儿童的母亲把关。

研究背景基于之前的研究报告称语言障碍与母亲超负荷工作和养育方式的改变有关，本研究旨在调查发育性语言障碍（DLD）中的母亲把关和过度保护问题：本研究共纳入 45 名发育性语言障碍（DLD）儿童和 46 名典型语言发育（TLD）儿童。为了评估母亲把关和过度保护的程度，我们采用了母亲把关量表（MGS）和家长态度量表（PAS）。此外，我们还使用《早期语言发展测试-3》（Test of Early Language Development-3，TELD-3）评估了受试者的语言能力，并使用《丹佛发展筛查测试-2》（Denver Development Screening Test-2，DDST-II）评估了受试者的整体发展状况。此外，还采用了听力测定法和自声发射测试法来评估听力功能：结果：DLD患儿的PAS-过度保护平均分（34.1 ± 8.4，24.3 ± 5.9，P < .001）和MGS总分（141.7 ± 24.1，115.7 ± 20.5，P < .001）明显高于TLD患儿。采用多元线性回归分析研究了影响 MGS 评分的因素。结果发现，DLD 诊断（β = 14.195，P = .029）、PAS 过度保护（β = 1.158，P = .001）和家庭收入水平（β = 9.643，P = .045）与 MGS 分数有明显相关。此外，PAS-过度保护在 DLD 诊断与 MGS 评分之间的关系中起部分中介作用（β = .391，P < .001）：本研究揭示了母亲把关与 DLD 和过度保护之间的关系。这些发现强调了在护理 DLD 儿童时评估母亲的做法和培养独立支持态度的重要性。
