Description
Families with children who have developmental disabilities often use behavioral services to address child externalizing behaviors. It is now well established from a variety of studies that COVID-19 has disproportionately impacted families and children with developmental disabilities. With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic preventing or altering access to behavioral services, this study employed survey methodology to examine whether change in access to services moderated the relations between multiple risk factors and child externalizing behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic. For the purpose of this study, risk factors consisted of race, parent income, and parental education. Participants included individuals with developmental disabilities and parents of children with developmental disabilities.
