“…The first 33 items are rated on a five-point Likert scale from "Strongly Disagree" to "Strongly Agree", with three items also rated into one of five options. In the present study with 408 Iranian parents, a factor analysis of the 36 items broadly replicated the three subscales in the original standardization study in the USA, which other studies have confirmed (e.g., [16]). Total scores were then calculated for three subscale items: (1) Parental Distress (12 items); (2) Difficult Child (13 items); (3) Parent-Child Dysfunctional Interactions (11 items).…”

The increased life expectancy of adult individuals with developmental disabilities and the likelihood of parents having to continue caregiving into their old age is an emerging international issue which deserves investigation, especially concerning satisfaction with caregiving. Moreover, this needs to be assessed in different cultures in order to create a better understanding of how families are best supported in their lifelong caregiving. A sample of 408 parents was gathered in six cities across Iran with a son or daughter who had a confirmed developmental disability. Self-completed measures of satisfaction and stress were obtained along with demographic details of the child and family. Satisfaction with caring was generally positive and was similar for mothers and fathers, for older as well as for younger parents; and between different types of developmental disabilities. However, both personal and child satisfaction decreased when parents reported increased stress and when caring for teenage and adult offspring and those with behavior problems. Parents need to receive support to sustain their motivation and satisfaction with caregiving if their quality of life and that of their children with disabilities is to be maintained and enhanced across their lifespan.

“…The findings suggested that parenting stress construct which consisted of 30 items could be used to measure the stress experienced by parents of children with autism spectrum disorder in Arab. Lee, et al (2016) conducted a study on minority population i.e. Afro and Latin caregivers of children with disabilities.…”

“…Parenting Stress Index has been translated and used in various countries, such as the United States of America (Lee, Gopalan, & Harrington, 2016), China (Tam, Chan, & Wong, 1994;Yeh, Chen, Li, & Chuang, 2001), Spain (Diaz-Herrero, Brito de la Nuez, López-Pina, Pérez-López, & Martínez-Fuentes, 2010;Solis & Abidin, 1991), and Korea (Lee, 2011). It has also been applied in numerous studies related to parenting stress in parents of children with ASD (Al-khalaf, Dempsey, & Dally, 2014;Boonen, Esch, Lambrechts, & Maljaars, 2015;Farrell, 2012;Foody, James, & Leader, 2015;Hoffman et al, 2008;Mahoney, 2009;May et al, 2015;Richardson, 2010;Rodger, Keen, Braithwaite, & Cook, 2008;Wang et al, 2013;Zablotsky, Bradshaw, & Stuart, 2013;Zaidman-Zait et al, 2017).…”

Parents of children with developmental disorders are prone to experiencing parenting stress. This study aimed to examine the validity and reliability of the parenting stress construct. A total of 125 mothers of children with autistic spectrum disorder were involved in this study. The results showed that parenting stress consists of three domains: parent, child, and parent-child interaction. This was proven through a validity test using exploratory and confirmatory analysis. The exploratory analysis indicated that the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy was 0.716, meeting the requirement value of above 0.5. Additionally, Bartlett's test of sphericity was significant (p <0.05). Based on the confirmatory analysis, the model was classified as fit with the index: X² (50, N = 125) = 71.98, p = 0.023, RMSEA = 0.060, GFI = 0.91; IFI = 0.94; CFI = 0.94; and RMSEA = 0.077; convergent validity values (λ> 0.5; and AVE values> 0.5); construct reliability values (CR = 0.846). Analysis of psychometric properties of parenting stress met the assumptions of good construct validity and reliability.

“…The results of fit indices were mixed, which may suggest that the model did not fit the data well. However, wellknown and widely used measures often do not always report well-fitting of identified factors (e.g., the Parent Stress Index-Short Form) (Deater-Deckard & Scarr 1996;Haskett et al 2006;Lee et al 2016;Reitman et al 2002), and a model that is incorrectly specified still can fit well (Kline 2011). Another limitation in this study is that we tried to make children in three out-of-home care systems comparable using random selection of the study sample and random split of the collected data to conduct EFA and CFA.…”

In order to offer client-centered services, it is important to measure children's service satisfaction and reflect their needs to out-of-home care practices and policies. However, a reliable measure that assesses children's satisfaction about out-of-home care is not found in Korea. This study aimed to develop a Korean out-of-home care satisfaction scale. The study sample consisted of 484 children from institutional care, group homes, and foster homes in Korea. Half of the sample was chosen randomly for exploratory factor analysis (EFA) based on 16 items from the Korean Foster Care Improvements Project. The other half of the sample was used for confirmatory factor analyses (CFA). EFA yielded two-factor structures that consist of eight items for each factor. Confirmatory factor analyses supported the two-factor structures with reasonable fit, and all items loaded significantly on the factors. The Korean out-of-home care satisfaction scale could be used as a tool to assess children's satisfaction with out-of-home care services, which could allow social workers to reflect children's needs immediately into practice and help policymakers make more informed decisions about out-of-home care services and programs.Keywords Korean out-of-home care satisfaction scale . Out-of-home care . Satisfaction scale In Korea, out-of-home care services are provided for children who are separated from their families of origin due to poverty, parents' divorce, domestic violence, runaway, and other reasons. They are placed and served mostly in one of the three out-of-home care services: institutional care, group homes, and foster care. In 2018, approximately 28,000 children were served in the three out-of-home care services including 11,665
