- W3207789685 abstract "The research was designed to study the parental attitude towards their physically handicapped children, and also the perception of the physically handicapped children about their family support towards their parents. Sample of the study included 30 children, both male and female equally, and 30 parents. A five-point Likert type Parent Attitude Scale developed by Butt, (1991) was used to measure the parental attitude towards their physically handicapped children. For children a four-point Family Support Scale developed by Naz, (2001) was used to measure the perceived family support of the children separately devised questionnaires, ascertained information for different demographic variables such as age, gender, education and socio-economic status of parents. Responses were statistically analyzed by the means, standard deviations, t-tests, correlations and Alpha reliability coefficient and ANOVA were also calculated to check the reliability of the instruments. Research finding showed the high reliability estimates of both scales. Results also indicated that family support was a crucial factor in the improvement of the perception of physically handicapped child. The scores of both the scales were inversely correlated with each other. These findings suggest that the parents over guardedness and concern generally lower perceived family support of such child. They perhaps want to gain more autonomy. The amount of care and over protectiveness may lead to low self-esteem and developed the learned helplessness in such children. The study tried to stress the need for further research in the field of physically handicapped children and their parent’s psychology in order to promote better relationships among them. The suggestions were also mentioned. Fundamental proficiencies are required at vast level to strive for maximum mass in routine activities, so in social aspect such qualities are considerable which enhance the self-determining as dominate factor in personality. Infirmity introduced when there are little failed to get biological adaptability in the way comparatively rest of the people. Such kind of deficiency in such people is called disability. Different biological factors are there which effect on the child. It possesses certain conditions with social psychological implications. A person who is handicapped feels less adequate than others do, either in general or in specific situation. There are different types of physically handicap, i.e. polio, limb deficiency, club foot, visually handicapped children, hearing impairment. Hypothesis, which were formulated are i.e. parents will have favorable attitude towards their physically handicapped children. There exists relationship between parental attitude and perceived family support of children. Mothers will have more positive attitude towards their physically handicapped children compared to the fathers of physically handicapped children. This study carried out the following objectives: To study the parental attitude towards physically handicapped children and to measure the difference in parent’s attitude towards physically handicapped children. The sample of 100 physically handicapped children was drawn at random. The data of PAS and FSS was put to statistical analysis. Basic exercise was to calculate psychometric properties of the scales used in the study. For this purpose, Alpha Reliability Coefficient of both scales was calculated. Items total correlation was also calculated for PAS.Results: The data of PAS and FSS was put to statistical analysis. Basic exercise was to calculate psychometric properties of the scales used in the study. For this purpose Alpha Reliability Coefficient of both scales was calculated. Items total correlation was also calculated for PAS. Major psychometric exercise was conducted to calculate the Percentile Ranks of the scores of PAS and FSS in order to determine the cut off scores. Means, standard deviation and t-values were also calculated to make comparisons between the scores of mothers and fathers of physically handicapped children and scores of physically handicapped children on family support scale.Conclusion: The present study originally aimed at studying the influence of parental attitudes towards their physically handicapped children and also the perception of such children towards family supports that how children perceived it. The role of parents are very important, all depends on them that how they treat their child. The Present study aimed at exploring the areas in which people interact with physically handicapped children and provide good direction and help to them. It was specifically conducted to measure the attitudes of people as an effect of gender, age, and education.On other side, the other hypothesis was that the highly educated parents and parents belonging to high socio-economic status have more favorable attitudes towards their physically handicapped children. However, the results are non-significant and our hypothesis is not accepted. According to the study of Khan (1980), The social status implies that a higher socio-economic status may also have resources, which could meet the demands of such children. The results showed that parents belonging to different socio-economic status have similar kind of care, love and affection towards their physically handicapped children.The effects of education on the attitude of people were though non-significant. However, the mean score of educated (above matric) is higher than the (matric) and uneducated group which shows that educated people have relatively more positive attitude towards their physically handicapped children. The mean of socio-economic status, which shows that parents, belongs to middle class more positive attitude towards their physically handicapped children.If the physically handicapped individual feels rejected, he may try to pretend as if he is physically normal and healthy individual. If he develops feelings of helplessness, he may exaggerate his dependency need. On the other hand, if such individuals are encouraged to cope with their limitation by developing a realistic attitude, they can live as independent and productive members of the society (Miles, 1981)." @default.
