Differences, Difficulties and Adaptation: Stress and Social Networks in Families with a Handicapped Child
Abstract
This paper discusses differences in 100 families with and without a handicapped child with respect to three types of stress (individual, marital, and parenting) and three structural characteristics of their social support networks (size, density, and boundary density). Generally, higher levels of stress and distinct network structures were found for the families with handicapped children. Despite the presence of high levels of stress, the families were found to have successful coping strategies. The results are discussed in terms of recognizing family strengths, and incorporating existing adaptational patterns in clinical interventions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
