Purpose
Psychological mindedness (PM) can partly explain depressive symptoms in caregivers of autism spectrum
disorder (ASD). This cross‐sectional study examines PM in mediating the relationship between dysfunctional
coping styles and depressive symptoms.
Design and Methods
One hundred fifty‐five adult ASD caregivers completed the Malay version of Brief COPE, the Patient Health
Questionnaire‐9, and the Balanced Index of PM.
Findings
Direct paths between dysfunctional coping style and depressive symptoms, between insight and depressive
symptoms, and between dysfunctional coping style and all PM variables (insight and interest) were
obtained. Multiple regression analyses revealed that insight, but not interest, significantly mediates the
relationship between dysfunctional coping and depressive symptoms.
Practical Implications
PM can be enhanced via psychological interventions. |
