Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the impact of parental
acceptance-rejection on psychological adjustment and selfconcepts of special children. The sample included 60 children
and youth with physical, hearing, and visual disabilities. An
equal number of respondents (n=20) was included in each
category. Parental Acceptance Rejection Questionnaire
(Child PARQ; Mother and Father versions; Rohner, 1990)
and the Personality Assessment Questionnaire (PAQ,
Rohner, 1990) were administered on all the respondents,
using Sign Language for hearing impaired and oral
administration for visually impaired. Scores of respondents
on Child PAQ and its subscales show psychological
maladjustment despite the fact that they perceive both parents
loving and affectionate.
