The participants of the study were 150 parents living and giving primary care of their children with developmental disability. The statistical measures employed were frequency and percentage, mean and standard deviation, and Pearson Correlation Coefficient. The Pearson Correlation Coefficient was the statistical tool used to determine if there was a significant relationship between the two variables.
