Parental & Sibling Adaptation in Families of Children with Chronic Conditions

Susanne Olsen

The currents project focuses on the relationship between parenting and child adjustment in families where there are children with a chronic condition (diabetes or disabilities).  The association between parenting and children's social skills and problem behaviors in these families is investigated.  The results of this study will provide information that can be used by practitioners who work with parents and children.
