Description
The aim of this study is to examine adaptive coping and stigma as they relate to perceived stress during a pandemic with a child with a developmental disability (DD, 24% female, 1% non-binary), including those parents who also have a DD (10%, N = 66). The majority of the children carried multiple diagnoses (54%), the remainder endorsed ADHD (10%), ASD (28%), and other (7%). A multiple moderated regression with a significant interaction term (B = 6.13, p < .05) indicates a buffering effect of coping and resilience predicting reduced stress for families experiencing stigma (F(3,62) = 3.487, p < .05).
