Objectives: To compare COVID-19-induced stress and coping in families with and without children diagnosed with developmental disorders or chronic conditions.Methods: In this mixed-method design study, an online survey collected information on parental stress levels before and during COVID-19, sources of stress, and coping strategies using open-ended questions. Qualitative answers were categorized thematically. Multiple linear regression models were built for the association between changes in stress levels (during-before COVID-19) and sources of stress for parents of children of both groups.Results: Answers of 1,827 parents were analyzed; of these, 186 (9.75%) had children with diagnosed problems. Changes in stress levels during vs. before COVID-19 were associated with the age of the parent, changes in working conditions, a total number of stressors, and distance learning of children. Stronger associations were found for parents of children with diagnoses. For example, for distance learning, the standardized beta (β) was 0.68 (95% confidence interval 0.37; 1.00) for parents of children without problems and β = 0.73 (0.43; 1.03) for those with problematic children.Conclusions: Parents of children with developmental disorders need specific attention in a pandemic.

The article is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of parenting stress and coping strategies of working and non-working mothers raising children of early and preschool age. The study involved 52 mothers raising young children. Methods: Questionnaire "Index of parental stress" (PSI-4), "Questionnaire of coping techniques" (WCQ). It was revealed that mothers of young children note health problems, low mood and attachment to the child. A comparative analysis of the level of parenting stress and coping strategies for working and non-working mothers revealed a lower level of parental competency and attachment to the child, and a higher level of confrontational coping for non-working mothers. It was found that for non-working mothers the determinant of higher level of parental stress was a low severity of the problem-solving planning strategy, and for working mothers was a highseverity of strategies for seeking social support and escape-avoidance.

Objectives: To determine the level of stress experienced and coping strategies used by parents of hearing impaired and autistic children. Methods: Using non-probability convenience sampling this cross sectional study recruited n =200 parents of hearing impaired (HI) and 100 parents of autistic children, of either gender, aged 20 to 60 years. Samples were recruited from Special Education Institutes of Islamabad and Rawalpindi, over a period of six months, from October 2018 to March 2019 and conducted at Isra Institute of Rehabilitation Sciences, Islamabad. Basic demographical sheet, Parental Stress Scale and Coping Strategies Inventory were used for data collection. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS 21. Results: In parents of hearing impaired the mean parental stress score was 47.44±12.85 and commonest coping strategy was problem focused engagement (26.03) followed by problem focused dis-engagement (24.25). In the autistic group the mean parental stress score was 48.92+11.22 with problem focused engagement being the most frequently used strategy (27.4) followed by emotion focused strategy. Conclusion: Different level of stress experienced by parents of autistic and hearing impaired children which is statistically significant and they employed different coping strategies. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.36.3.1766 How to cite this:Ishtiaq N, Mumtaz N, Saqulain G.
