Abstract:Examined the utility of a new parent-report measure designedspecifically for pediatric inpatients, the Behavioral Upsetin Medical Patients-Revised (BUMP-R). The BUMP-R was administeredto 151 mothers of hospitalized children ages 4–12 yearsthe day following the child's hospital admission. The BUMP-Rdemonstrated good internal consistency and a factor analysisrevealed four factors identified as negativity/agitation, amiability,dysphoria, and noncom-pliance. Children exhibiting behavioraldistress at home were more likely to experience adjustment problemsupon hospitalization. Demographic and illness-related variableswere not substantial risk factors for hospital adjustment difficulties.
