Abstract

Thirty-two married Israeli couples, parents of young children with developmental disabilities, were studied with respect to differences in the perception of their children's development, child-related stress, and dyadic adjustment. Major findings showed that there were no differences between husbands and wives of men and women regarding the perception of their children's development, child-related stress and dyadic adjustment. However, a plot box presentation indicated nominal differential differences between men and women in perception of their children's development. Findings are discussed in respect to practice and future research.
