Family Predictors of Maternal and Paternal Involvement in Programs for Young Children with Disabilities.

Gavidia-Payne, Susana; Stoneman, Zolinda

Child Development, v68 n4 p701-17 Aug 1997

Used structural equational modeling to examine the combined influence and predictive ability of family characteristics on maternal and paternal involvement in early intervention programs. Found that coping was a significant predictor of maternal and paternal involvement as well as a mediator variable between family functioning and parental involvement. (Author/KB)
