Abstract

Parents of children with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) face unique challenges and experiences that shape their lives and the well-being of their families. Support networks, both professional and community-based, can help in assisting parents in managing these challenges. This study examined the relationship between Psychological Well-being (PWB) and Resilience of parents of children with NDDs. It also seeks to find the moderating role of NDDs to the relationship between the two variables. This also investigated if the domains of PWB are significant predictors of resilience. The participants were selected based on the given criteria. One hundred fifty-four (N=154) parents of children with NDD were able to completely answer the survey questionnaires to measure their level of psychological well-being (PWB) and resilience. Data collection utilized online forms and face-to-face distribution of the Ryffs Psychological Wellbeing Scales and the Brief Resilience Scale (BRS). The result showed a significant positive correlation between PWB and Resilience (r=0.054, p=0.001). Moreover, the majority of the respondents are in the moderately high level of the overall psychological well-being and the medium low level of resilience. When grouped according to the types of NDD, it shows that the overall psychological well-being of parents of children with ASD and GDD predicts resilience, but not with the group of parents of children with ADHD. Moreover, the type of NDD does not moderate the relationship of two variables. Also, the findings provide a basis for the construction of welfare program necessary to support and strengthen resilience of the above-mentioned population.
