Asociación de tipología familiar y disfuncionalidad en familias con adolescentes de una población mexicana / Association of family typology and dysfunction in families with adolescents from a Mexican population

OBJETIVO: Determinar la asociación entre tipología y disfuncionalidad familiar en familias mexicanas con adolescentes. DISEÑO: Estudio observacional de tipo transversal. EMPLAZAMIENTO Y PARTICIPANTES: Cuatrocientas treinta y siete familias con adolescentes inscritos en una escuela secundaria pública de una población mexicana. Mediciones principales: Determinación de la tipología familiar (Consejo y Consenso Mexicano de Medicina Familiar) y la funcionalidad familiar (APGAR familiar) en adolescentes y sus padres/tutores. Identificación de las familias con percepciones concordantes entre miembros (kappa de Cohen), en las cuales se determinó la asociación entre tipología y percepción de disfuncionalidad familiar (odds ratio [OR]). RESULTADOS: Los tipos de familias están asociados con la funcionalidad familiar por parentesco, presencia física en el hogar y el nivel de pobreza familiar. Desde la percepción del adolescente, se asocian los tipos: nuclear simple (OR 0,5, IC 95% 0,3-0,8), monoparental extendida (OR 1,9, IC 95% 1,03-3,5), núcleo integrado (OR 0,6, IC 95% 0,4-0,9), pobreza familiar baja (OR 0,5, IC 95% 0,3-0,8) y pobreza familiar alta (OR 5,3, IC 95% 1,5-18,6). Desde la percepción del tutor: la monoparental (OR 1,9, IC 95% 1,09-3,4) y de pobreza familiar alta (OR 2 9, IC 95% 1,1-7,7). Hubo 259 familias con percepción concordante de funcionalidad/disfuncionalidad familiar con un kappa = 0,189, determinando que los tipos asociados son: la nuclear simple (OR 0,4, IC 95% 0,2-0,7), monoparental (OR 1,7, IC 95% 0,80-3,8), núcleo integrado (OR 0,5, IC 95% 0,3-0,8), núcleo no integrado (OR 1,9, IC 95% 1,09-3,5) y pobreza familiar alta (OR 13,8, IC 95% 1,7-108,5). CONCLUSIÓN: Los tipos de familia con adolescentes asociadas con disfuncionalidad familiar son las monoparentales, las de núcleo no integrado y aquellas con pobreza familiar alta, y como factores de protección, la nuclear simple y con núcleo integrado

OBJECTIVE: To determine the association between family typology and dysfunction in families with adolescents in a Mexican population. DESIGN: Cross-sectional observational study. Setting and population: A total of 437 families in a Mexican population with adolescents attending a public high school. MAIN MEASUREMENTS: Determination of family typology (Mexican Family Medicine Council and Consensus) and family function (family APGAR) in adolescents and their parents/guardians. Identification of families with concordant perceptions among members (Cohen kappa), in which the association between typology and perception of family dysfunction was determined (odds ratio [OR]). RESULTS: The types of families are associated with family function by kinship, physical presence in the home and the level of family poverty. From the perception of the adolescent, the types are associated with: simple nuclear (OR 0.5, 95% CI 0.3-0.8), extended single parent (OR 1.9, 95% CI 1.03-3.5), integrated nucleus (OR 0.6, 95% CI 0.4-0.9), low family poverty (OR 0.5, 95% CI 0.3-0.8), and high family poverty (OR 5.3, 95% CI 1.5-18.6). From the perception of the tutor: the single parent (OR 1.9, 95% CI 1.09-3.4), and high family poverty (OR 2.9, 95% CI 1.1-7.7). There were 259 families with concordant perception of family function/dysfunction with a Kappa = 0.189, determining that the types associated are: simple nuclear (OR 0.4, 95% CI 0.2-0.7), single-parent (OR 1.7, 95% CI 0.80-3.8), integrated nucleus (OR 0.5, 95% CI 0.3-0.8), non-integrated nucleus (OR 1.9, 95% CI 1.09-3.5), and high family poverty (OR 13.8, 95% CI 1.7-108.5). CONCLUSION: The family types with adolescents associated with family dysfunction are single-parent families with a non-integrated nucleus and high family poverty, and as protective factors, the simple nuclear and integrated nucleus
