Abstract:The objectives of this study were: 1) Compare the perceived parental stress between a group of parents of children with ASD and a group of parents of children with typical development. The rest of the objectives are focused on the analysis of the ASD group.2) Compare the perceived parental stress between the parents of the ASD children with language and the parents of the ASD children without language. 3) Analyze the relationship between the perceived parental stress and the child’s receptive linguistic skills. 4) Analyze the relationship between the perceived parental stress and the child’s expressive linguistic skills. The Parenting Stress Index scale (the child domain) was used to evaluate the parental stress. The main results obtained were: 1) Parental stress in the parents of ASD children was higher than in the parents of the children with typical development. 2) There was no significant difference on the perceived parental stress between the parents of ASD children with and without language. 3) Parental stress showed a statistically significant relation with some of the evaluated variables, both receptive and expressive language. Thus, the child’ limitations on language skills were linked to a higher parental stress in the child domain, particularly the one obtained in the Acceptability subscale, relative to the parental expectations about the child’s capacities. This result is discussed in the context of the importance that our culture gives to the achievement motivation and the possible connection of this with parental stress.Keywords:  Autism Spectrum Disorder, expressive language, parental stress, receptive language.Resumen:Los objetivos de este estudio fueron: 1) Comparar el estrés parental percibido entre un grupo de padres de niños con TEA y un grupo de padres de niños de desarrollo típico. El resto de objetivos se centraron en el análisis del grupo con TEA. 2) Comparar el estrés parental percibido entre los padres de niños TEA con lenguaje y los padres de niños TEA sin lenguaje. 3) Analizar la relación entre el estrés parental percibido y las habilidades lingüísticas receptivas del niño. 4) Analizar la relación entre el estrés parental percibido y las habilidades lingüísticas expresivas del niño. Para evaluar el estrés parental se utilizó la escala Parenting Stress Index (dominio del niño). Los principales resultados obtenidos  fueron: 1) Un nivel de estrés parental superior en los padres de niños TEA que en los padres de niños de desarrollo típico. 2) No hubo diferencia significativa en el nivel de estrés parental percibido entre los padres de niños TEA con y sin lenguaje. 3) El estrés parental mostró una relación estadísticamente significativa con algunas de las variables evaluadas, tanto de lenguaje receptivo como expresivo. Así, las limitaciones en las competencias lingüísticas del niño se vincularon con un mayor estrés parental asociado a las características del niño, y en particular, el obtenido en la subescala de aceptabilidad, relativa a las expectativas parentales sobre las capacidades del niño. Se discute este resultado en el marco de la importancia que nuestra cultura otorga a la consecución de metas de logro y la posible vinculación que este hecho podría presentar con el estrés parental.Palabras clave: Trastorno del Espectro Autista, estrés parental, lenguaje expresivo, lenguaje receptivo.

The Relationship

Two measures, the Maternal Social Support Index and the Parenting Stress Index were used to assess parents' stress and social support among mothers of 7-yr.-old children born at very low birthweight. The MSSI Total scores did not significantly correlate with the PSI Total Child, Total Parent, or Total Stress Indices, although they were significant, but modestly correlated with scores on the Parent subscale of Social Isolation. The relationship between parental stress and maternal social support requires continued investigation.

The aim of this study was to compare parental stress and resilience in parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), Down syndrome (DS), and typical development (TD), and analyze the relationship between these two constructs. A total of 97 parents participated (ASD: n = 32, DS: n = 23, and TD: n = 42). The instruments used were the Parental Stress Index and the Resilience Scale. The ASD group obtained higher parental stress related to the child’s characteristics but not related to the parents’ characteristics. The three groups obtained moderate resilience, and high resilience was associated with low parental stress in the ASD and DS groups. The higher parental stress obtained in the ASD group, compared to the DS group, was not associated with aspects related to the parents or demographic and social factors of the families but rather with aspects related to the child and the characteristics of each disorder, as perceived by the parents.

Abstract.This paper addresses two aims: a) to analyze differences in the stress of parents of children and adolescents with ADHD with high and low scores on success atributes related to resilience; b) to study the relationship between these success attributes and the level of success of life satisfaction of children in different domains. For this, 46 families completed the questionnaires of Assessment Attributes Success, the domain’s Father Parenting Stress Index and Life Satisfaction Scales. The statistical analysis demonstrated significant differences in the parenting stress of children with ADHD and low and high scores on the attributes of self-awareness, proactivity, perseverance and goal setting. Life satisfaction was associated with the manifestation of success attributes. Implications for research and clinical practice of these findings are discussed.Keywords: ADHD, resilience, parental stress, life satisfaction.Resumen.El presente trabajo aborda dos objetivos: a) analizar las diferencias en el estrés de los padres de niños y adolescentes con TDAH con altas y bajas puntuaciones en factores de éxito relacionados con la resiliencia b) estudiar la relación entre estos factores de éxito y el nivel de satisfacción con la vida del niño en distintos dominios. Para ello, 46 familias cumplimentaron los cuestionarios de Evaluación de Atributos de Éxito, el dominio del padre del Parenting Stress Index y las Escalas de Satisfacción Vital. Los resultados indican diferencias estadísticamente significativas en el estrés de los padres de niños con TDAH y puntuaciones altas y bajas en autoconciencia, proactividad, perseverancia y establecimiento de metas. La satisfacción vital se asoció a los atributos de éxito. Se comentan las implicaciones para la investigación y para la práctica clínica de estos hallazgos.Palabras clave: TDAH, resiliencia, estrés parental, satisfacción con la vida.

Neurodevelopmental Disabilities

Parenting a child with a disability, such as neurodevelopmental disorders and genetic syndromes, implies a high level of stress. During the COVID-19 outbreak—as a period implying additional challenges—few studies have specifically investigated caregivers’ distress among neurodevelopmental disabilities. The objective of the study is to investigate whether during the COVID-19 pandemic, the level of parental stress differs between four disability groups including neurodevelopmental disorders (autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)) and genetic syndromes (Rett syndrome (RTT), Sotos syndrome (SS)) in comparison to families with typical development offspring (TD). In total, 220 Italian parents of children affected by neurodevelopmental disabilities (74 ASD, 51 ADHD, 34 SS, 21 RTT, 40 TD; age M 9.4 ± SD 4.2) underwent a standardized evaluation for stress related to parenting through the self-report questionnaire, Parental Stress Index-Short Form (PSI-SF). The main findings show greater levels of parental stress—mainly linked to child behavioral characteristics rather than parental sense of competence—in parents of children affected by a disability in comparison to children with typical development. This study highlights the need to support not only individuals with special needs but also their own caregivers: core figures in the management and outcome of children disorders.

Couple Adjustment

IntroductionLiterature on parents’ adjustment in families with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) children highlights on one hand that raising a child with ASD represent a higher stressful experience comparing to families of children with other disabilities and families of children with typical development. On the other hand, a recent systematic review on relationship satisfaction of these parents stressed the very lower levels of couple satisfaction in parents raising a child with ASD. Give that, the aim of this study is to investigate the association between relationship satisfaction and parental stress in a sample of parents of ASD children.Method70 parents were recruited (34 = M and 36 = F) to sign the following self-reports: Parenting stress index-short-form (PSI-SF), to assess stress relative to parental role, and dyadic adjustment scale (DAS), to assess couple satisfaction.ResultsThe analysis showed no differences between mothers and fathers respect to investigated variables. Negative correlations between almost all subscales of the PSI-SF and the subscales of DAS emerged. Moreover, from the regression analysis performed, it can be concluded that the values of the total score of the DAS predicts the PSI-SF total score.ConclusionsIn accordance with and building on the achievements of previous studies, these data illustrate a positive influence of couple adjustment on parental stress in parents of ASD children, supporting the hypothesis that relationship satisfaction emerge as a protective variables in the process of parental adaptation.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

In a large-scale study performed in Germany, 317 parents were asked to complete both the Parenting Stress Index and an additional questionnaire on demographics and related information. This article explores the question of parenting stress for parents of children who are hearing impaired with additional disabilities. Results showed consistently high stress scores in the Child Domain, whereas the Parent Domain showed (apart from one score) only a slight tendency toward greater stress. These results realistically portray the situation of parents of children who are multiply disabled and hearing impaired The results suggest that these parents should be provided with extended psychosocial intervention.
