Abstract:

This qualitative study attempted to capture the experiences of parents of children with high-functioning autistic spectrum disorders participating in child-parent relationship therapy (CPRT). Parents of children with high-functioning autistic spectrum disorders (HFASD) are prone to experiencing stress in the parent-child relationship due to difficulty in social understanding and rigid behavioral patterns often found among children with HFASD. Moreover, parents of children with HFASD may feel challenged to find suitable interventions that are time-limited, affordable, and appropriate for parent

Abstract:

Background Having a child with autism places significant demands on parents. Few interventions address parental understanding of the meaning behind child behaviour, and the relationship this has with parental stress. Parent-mediated interventions focus on behaviour exhibited by the child and ignore parental stress. This study assesses the impact of a psycho-educational intervention, which assists parents to derive meaning from their child’s behaviour. Aims The overall aim was to investigate if an intervention targeted exclusively at parents would: • Reduce parent stress associated with Child C

Abstract:

Autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) is a group of developmental disorders characterized by significant challenges in socialization, communication, and behaviour. Unlike many other chronic illnesses, ASD proves to be a difficult disorder for parents to cope with. Nonetheless not many studies have been conducted in the area, particularly focusing on single parents. This study aimed to add to this limited literature by extending the exploration to include experiences of all types of single parents in raising children diagnosed with autism in a South African context, specifically in Pretoria.

Abstract:

Parents of children with autism experience high degrees of stress. Research pertaining to the reduction of parental stress in families with a child with autism is needed. In this study, the relationship between family resilience, parent gender, and parental stress was examined. Seventy-one parents of young children with autism were surveyed. Regression and correlational analyses were performed. Results indicated that the vast majority of respondents reported significantly high levels of stress. Lower degrees of parental stress were correlated with higher degrees of family resilience. Fam

This thesis sought to gather the experiences and perceptions of parents who have children with a diagnosis of autism and currently attend a mainstream school. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was used to explore the data from a qualitative and social constructionist perspective.

Most parents had positive and supportive experiences of mainstream schooling although this was not unanimously the case. Some parents had poor experiences and raised questions and doubts concerning the efficacy

Theories for parenting self-efficacy suggest parents of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) may be at risk for lower parenting self-efficacy than other parents.

Previous researchers found inconsistent results related to parenting self-efficacy rates for parents of children with ASD.

Benefits of such approaches include the establishment of natural communities of reinforcement and better understanding of the breadth of effects.
