Abstract: Objective Parent–child communication is integral to pediatric asthma management. This review evaluates parent–child communication among youth with asthma and their caregivers. It aims to characterize the type of communication according to a unifying framework (Murphy, L. K. Murray, C. B. & Compas, B. E. Guest Editors: Cynthia A. Gerhardt, Cynthia A. Berg, Deborah J. Wiebe and Grayson N. Holmbeck (2017). Topical review: Integrating findings on direct observation of family communication in studies comparing pediatric chronic illness and typically developing samples. Journal of Pediatric Psychology, 42, 85–94. https://doi.org/10.1093/jpepsy/jsw051), assess sociodemographic factors associated with communication, and examine the relationship between parent–child communication and youth psychosocial and health-related outcomes. Methods A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases (June 2021; updated May 2024). Included studies reported original, peer-reviewed research on the relationship between parent–child communication and youth psychosocial or health outcomes among pediatric patients (mean age <18 years) with asthma and their primary caregiver(s). Study quality was evaluated using the Study Quality Assessment Tools of the NHLBI. Results Sixty-six articles were included with data from 5,373 youth with asthma. Studies assessed both positive (warm and structured) and negative (hostile/intrusive and withdrawn) communication. Most studies used questionnaires and cross-sectional designs. Associations between sociodemographic and communication variables were largely nonsignificant. Greater positive and less negative communication was associated with better youth psychosocial and asthma outcomes overall. Conclusion Parent–child communication may be an important target for interventions aimed at improving youth outcomes. More research is needed to develop communication-focused interventions that aim to enhance parents' and youths' communication skills (i.e. increase their use of positive communication approaches and/or reduce their use of negative communication approaches) and evaluate their impact on youth outcomes. Future research should also use more discussion tasks and longitudinal designs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
