“…These findings are consistent with prior research which has reported the often adverse impact of ASD on families (Manning et al, 2021;Xue et al, 2014), and it can be inferred, family functioning, in general. In addition, while some researchers (Cridland et al, 2014;Duca, 2015;Hartshorne et al, 2013) have suggested that some families respond positively to a change in their situation by viewing it as something they can handle, the findings of the present study are not sufficient to validate or confirm this in the participants' families.…”

“…Prime et al (2020), for instance, during the COVD-19 pandemic, highlighted that family processes, shared family viewpoints, and intimate relationships can promote resilience. Hartshorne et al (2013) suggested that parents of children with severe disabilities develop resilience when they view their situation as something they can handle. In the specific context of families having a member with ASD, Cridland et al (2014) suggested that resilience and traumatic growth were positive facets of such family systems.…”

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between family functioning and strengths in the context of parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in Saudi Arabia. A total of 300 parents of a child with ASD completed a self-report questionnaire, the Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scales (FACES IV), Family Communication Scale (FCS), Family Satisfaction Scale (FSS), and Family Strengths Scale, to measure different balanced and unbalanced aspects of family cohesion and flexibility, family communication skills, extent of satisfaction with family functioning, and the accord and pride facets of family strength. The data were analyzed using independent sample t-test, F-test, and ANOVA. The severity of child's ASD symptoms and age of the child when diagnosed with ASD had a significant effect on a family's cohesion and flexibility, communication, and accord. The parents’ years of marriage and annual income also had a significant effect on cohesion, flexibility, communication, and family strengths. Contributions of the study, limitations, and implications for future research and practice are provided.

Social-emotional development is important to personal adjustment and well-being. Little has been written about social-emotional development in children and youth who are deafblind. The authors discuss factors in typical social-emotional development-attachment, empathy, and friendships-and how they may be challenged in children who are deaf-blind. Also reviewed are factors that place children who are deafblind at risk for delays in social-emotional development. Finally, the possible benefits of inclusion to the social-emotional development of children who are deafblind are examined.
