“…If parents feel that they can handle specific situations related to their child, they are less stressed and feel less in need of additional support. When parents report good self-efficacy, it affects how they feel as parents, how worried they are, and their relationship with their child (Dempsey and Dunst 2004;Wakimizu et al 2011). Studies have also shown that supporting self-efficacy will have an effect on parental and child well-being and that parents with a high self-rated selfefficacy rate their needs for support lower (Trivette, Dunst, and Hamby 2010).…”

“…This result also indicates that professionals working to provide support to these parents must interact with parents in a manner that optimizes the parent's access to information and perceived control over the available services. When professionals apply capacity-building practices to promote the parent's active involvement in problem-solving and decision-making, the parent's perceived self-efficacy in controlling services and as a parent increases (Dempsey and Dunst 2004). Thus, parents with high parental self-efficacy and high perceived control over services will perceive a lower support need.…”

“…Parental self-efficacy refers to how confident the parents feel in their ability to handle child-related problems. Studies have shown that the parents' experienced needs are related to their perceived self-efficacy in helping their child, as well as in their perception the ability to influence the services received (Dempsey and Dunst 2004;Dunst and Trivette 2009). If parents feel that they can handle specific situations related to their child, they are less stressed and feel less in need of additional support.…”

Perceived needs among parents of children with a mild intellectual disability in Sweden. Research, https://doi.org/10. 1080/15017419.2016.1167773 Access to the published version may require subscription. Parents of children with a mild intellectual disability experience more distress and require more support than other parents. The aim was to investigate the perceived family needs of parents of children with an MID and to investigate the relationship between parents' perceived selfefficacy in their parental role and in collaborating with professionals as well as with their perceived needs for support. Interviews were based on questionnaires to the parents of 38 children. The results revealed that parents perceived need for information, respite, and venues in which to meet other parents in similar situations. The informational needs were related to parental self-efficacy and obtaining support. A lower need for information was related to higher perceived control over services. In conclusion, it appears that professionals need to work to strengthen parents' ability to ask for support and to express the needs. Wellinformed parents will develop stronger parental self-efficacy and perceived control over services. Scandinavian Journal of Disability ARTICLE HISTORY

“…El ECF toma el empowerment como meta y como procedimiento principal de intervención, ya que en la medida en que las familias se sientan con poder (percepción de control) y tengan confianza en su capacidad para influir en los servicios que reciben y, por ende, en el desarrollo de sus hijos, son menos vulnerables a los resultados negativos y perciben de un modo positivo la calidad de vida familiar (Bailey et al, 2006;Dempsey y Dunst, 2004;Dunst y Dempsey, 2007). La investigación muestra cómo sucesos potencialmente negativos no resultan tan estresantes cuando se acompañan de un sentido de control personal (Thompson, 2009).…”

Familia y discapacidad. Una perspectiva teórico-aplicada del Enfoque Centrado en la Familia para promover la autodeterminación ResumenIntroducción. Este trabajo plantea la necesidad de promover enfoques de intervención centrados en la familia cuya meta sea la mejora de la calidad de vida familiar, la capacitación (empowerment) de todos los miembros y el desarrollo de sus habilidades de autodeterminación.Método. Se ha revisado una amplia relación de trabajos de los últimos 10 años sobre discapacidad, autodeterminación y modelos de intervención centrados en la familia. Partiendo de esta base, se describen las experiencias de un pequeño grupo de padres (N=4), atendiendo a los aspectos positivos asociados a su vivencia de la discapacidad. Por otra parte, se analiza, desde una perspectiva teórica-aplicada, el enfoque de intervención centrado en la familia (ECF).Resultados. En consonancia con la literatura, los padres de este estudio consideran que la vivencia de la discapacidad ha supuesto retos, preocupaciones acerca del futuro de sus hijos y cierta carga adicional, pero también un enriquecimiento personal y familiar. Se destacan como factores clave para lograr la calidad de vida familiar: las relaciones colaborativas entre profesionales y padres, la identificación de las fortalezas familiares, o el desarrollo de la percepción de control y de las habilidades de autodeterminación de los padres. Se presentan algunas propuestas acerca de cómo apoyar a las familias en la consecución de estas metas.Discusión y conclusiones. La falta de competencias de las familias para responder a algunas necesidades de sus hijos requiere la puesta en marcha de planes de intervención centrados en la familia que contribuyan a aumentar la autodeterminación de todos sus miembros. -1341 -Family and disability.

Mots-clés : Empowerment, Développement du pouvoir d' agir, relation parents-professionnels, intervention précoce, collaboration avec les familles. Résumé : Les services offerts aux enfants sollicitent de plus en plus les ressources familiales. La famille devient un partenaire privilégié et non seulement un bénéficiaire de services. Cette transformation teinte les relations entre parents et professionnels où chacun doit s' ajuster à cette nouvelle réalité. Le développement du pouvoir d' agir (DPA -traduction du terme « empowerment ») des parents s'inscrit dans cette transformation où les interventions professionnelles se fondent sur des valeurs de partenariat et de collaboration. Le développement du pouvoir d' agir (DPA) constitue un cadre conceptuel pour l'intervention auprès de la famille et se définit autant comme un processus qu'un résultat. Par ce processus, le parent développe une perception de contrôle et fait davantage appel aux ressources. Cet article présente les résultats d'une recherche portant sur les expériences parentales qui soutiennent le DPA. Les données ont été recueillies auprès de parents d' enfants recevant des services en Centre de réadaptation en déficience intellectuelle et en troubles envahissants du développement (CRDITED). Nos premières analyses indiquent qu' à travers les expériences habilitantes décrites pas les parents, les relations parents-professionnels constituent un des facteurs déterminant pour le DPA des familles. The development of empowerment within relationships between parents and professionals in the context of early intervention| 53
