ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was how relative variables had effect on the attachment stability in children with disabilities. This study also investigated significancy among several variables according to disability type. We selected 48 children with pervasive developmental disability, 73 children with mental retardation children, and 121 of his or her mother for our study. We surveyed them on social support, marriage satisfaction., depression. mother's sensitivity, children's intellectual ability and language ability. We verified how these variables have effect on attachment stability with using multiple regression analysis. The results of present study were as follows: Only mother's sensitivity had effect on the attachment stability in children with disabilities. The disability type with children didn't have any effect on the attachment stability. Mother's sensitivity for pervasive developmental disorder and mental retardation children had more effect on attachment any other variables.
