Elahe Jafarpoor, Mojtaba Jafarishahidi,
Volume 18, Issue 2 (9-2024)
Abstract
Autism spectrum disorder has profound effects on family dynamics and challenges the mental health of parents. The present study aimed to examine the role of self-compassion and emotion regulation in the mental health of parents of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder, compared to parents of typically developing adolescents. This causal-comparative study included 200 parents (100 from each group) selected purposively from clinical centers in Tehran. Data were collected using the Self-Compassion Scale, the Emotion Dysregulation Questionnaire, and the SCL-90, and analyzed using multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). The results indicated that parents of adolescents with autism had lower self-compassion (p < 0.01) and higher emotion dysregulation compared to parents in the typical development group, and experienced more mental health issues across various dimensions. These findings highlight the psychological challenges faced by parents of adolescents with autism and emphasize the need for effective interventions aimed at improving self-compassion and emotion regulation. Enhancing these factors may lead to a reduction in mental health problems within this group.
