Abstract:
Public Law 102-119 (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 1991), mandates that family members, if they wish, participate in developing a plan of treatment for their child. Traditionally, therapist have not relied on parental assessments based upon the assumption that parents overestimate their child's abilities. The present study compared parental perceptions about the developmental status of their child's fine motor abilities to the therapist's interpretation of a standardized assessment using the Peabody Developmental Motor Scale (Fine Motor).

Abstract:
Stress levels of parents whose children have developmental disabilities (DD) are significantly higher than those of parents with typically developing children. However, few studies have looked at the effects of child characteristics on parent stress over time. The aim of the present study is to assess whether changes in child behaviour problems or adaptive functioning affect parent stress. Using data from the National Early Intervention Research Initiative, predictors and correlates of stress were examined in parents of children with DD who attend early intervention (EI) programs (n = 21).

Parents of children with severe developmental disabilities face a variety of unique circumstances as they raise a child who requires specialized care. Accessing the support of other parents of children with developmental disabilities can be a valuable external resource for managing the stress associated with raising a child with special needs. The literature on support groups for parents of children with disabilities predominantly focuses on evaluating existing support groups rather than designing support groups based on the recommendations of the population that would utilize them.

Self-control can be defined as the ability to select a larger, later reward over a smaller, sooner reward. This ability, also known as gratification delay, has been highly correlated with academic competence and success.

This study examined the extent to which parents of children with Autism or a related disability could be trained to teach these strategies.
