“…It is worth noting, however, that the difference obtained by the authors indicating that mothers of children with autism can feel much less vulnerable to parental burnout than the parents of children with moderate intellectual disabilities is the same as the specific results concerning the emotional exhaustion of mothers (Fig. 2), which obviously corresponds with the results obtained by Dudek [47].…”

Background:The aim of the study was to determine and compare the current risk of parental burnout in mothers of children with autism and with mild and moderate intellectual disabilities. Material and methods:The study was conducted among 30 mothers of children with autism, 30 mothers of children with moderate intellectual disabilities and 20 mothers of children with mild intellectual disabilities. A diagnostic survey was the research method, a survey was the technique used, and the Parental Burnout Questionnaire by M. Sekułowicz and P. Kwiatkowski was the applied research tool. Results:The average level of parental burnout risk significantly differentiates the investigated mothers due to the type of the child's disability. The lowest risk of parental burnout is shown in mothers of children with autism, a slightly higher risk is characteristic of mothers of children with moderate and mild intellectual disabilities, respectively.Conclusions: Mothers of children with autism and with moderate and mild intellectual disabilities show a low level of the parental burnout risk, which may indicate they are about to achieve the stage of constructive adaptation to the situation of having a child with a disability.

“…In times of family crisis, mothers cope worse and use emotions and avoidance behaviours [39]. In a similar study by M. Dudek (2017), among parents of children with ASD, mothers relatively more often than fathers display the avoidance-focused style (SSU) and the style of engaging in substitute activities (ACZ) [40].…”

Raising and caring for a child with ASD is a challenge for the parents’ marriage relationship. Caring for a disabled child changes the functioning of the family and requires greater involvement in care and specialist therapy. The respondents’ answers show that such parents experience higher levels of stress related to the upbringing and future of the child. However, parenting challenges need not be a negative experience if the parents support each other. The process of bringing up children in the family are related, inter alia, to the quality of their parents ‘marriage, which is influenced by the partners’ personal resources. The resilience of the partners and coping with this situation contribute to marital satisfaction. The aim of the study is to find out about the relationship between spouses’ resilience and coping styles and their assessment of marriage satisfaction. In total, 50 married couples participated in the study—50 mothers of children with ASD and 50 fathers, the partners of these mothers (N = 100). The following tools were used: the Resilience Scale (SPP-25), the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations (CISS) and the Well-Matched Marriage Questionnaire (KDM-2), as well as a survey questionnaire (data on respondents). The results show that the gender of the parent of a child with ASD does not differentiate the overall assessment of the quality of marriage (the overall score on the scale indicates a low level of satisfaction with the relationship). When analyzing in detail the dimensions of individual scales of satisfaction with the relationship, one statistically significant difference was noted for the sex of the respondents in the disappointment dimension, showing that the level of disappointment in the quality of the relationship is higher in wives than in husbands. In the other dimensions of satisfaction with marriage: intimacy, personal fulfillment, similarity, there were no statistically significant differences in terms of gender of the respondents. The resilience of the spouses positively correlates with their assessment of marriage satisfaction, and in particular, openness, perseverance and determination to act increase the level of Task-oriented coping (SSZ) with difficult situations. All resilience factors negatively correlate with the emotional coping style (SSE). In both the studied groups, openness is a significant predictor of intimacy, and persistence is a predictor of self-fulfilment in a relationship. A predictor of disappointment in women is managing using substitute activities (ACZ), while in men it is the Emotion-oriented coping (SSE) style. The results indicate the need to support married couples raising a child with ASD during the pandemic.

“…A high level of parenting stress has a negative impact on parents' ability to effectively cope with their child's behavior and the child-raising process in general [15,33]. Dudek reported that mothers of children with ASD were more likely than fathers to use avoidance and distraction coping styles [30]. Similarly, Pisula and Kossakowska drew attention to the fact that mothers of autistic children were more likely than mothers of typically developing children to experience feelings of helplessness, failure, and parenting inefficacy and to use avoidance as a coping strategy [36].…”

He discovered that Curr Probl Psychiatry 2022;23 (1) mothers of autistic children were more likely than fathers to use avoidance and distraction (engaging in substitute activities) coping styles [30]. In his study, there were no significant differences in coping styles between parents of children with autism and Asperger's syndrome [30].…”

Introduction: The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between coping styles in mothers of children with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and the severity of their children’s symptoms. Material and method: The study included a group of 70 women raising children with a medical diagnosis of ASD. The children with the aforementioned pervasive developmental disorders were from 5 to 16 years old and were patients of the Mental Health Centre in Kielce, Poland. A study involved: our own survey; the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) by R. Goodman; the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations (CISS) questionnaire by Endler and Parker; the Sense of Coherence Scale SOC-29 by Antonovsky; the Set of Questionnaires for the Diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASRS) by S. Goldstein and J. A. Naglieri. Results: The mothers’ preference for emotion-focused and avoidance coping styles was found to correlate significantly with their low sense of coherence and the severity of their child’s ASD symptoms measured with ASRS and SDQ. Conclusions: 1. Emotion-focused and avoidance coping styles were associated with a low sense of coherence in the surveyed women. 2. The mothers’ preference for emotion-focused and avoidance coping styles was associated with increased ASD symptoms, more severe emotional and behavioral deficits and poorer peer interactions in their children. 3. The mothers’ preference for problem-focused coping correlated with a low severity of their children’s social and communication deficits.
