Objective: In recent research, parental acceptance has been considered as one of the effective structures on mental health. One of the challenges in studying this structure has been measuring and evaluating this variable and its components. The aim of this study was to evaluate the validity and validity of Paper's Paternity Acceptance Questionnaire Porter (1954) on a sample of mothers with children with special learning disabilities in Shiraz.
Methods: The subjects were 308 mothers with children with learning disabilities who were selected by cluster sampling. The research tool was a 40-item parental acceptance questionnaire. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to evaluate the validity of the questionnaire.
Results: After factor analysis, the factor structure of the questionnaire was approved. The reliability coefficient of the questionnaire was 0.73 by Cronbach's alpha method.
Conclusions: In general, the results showed that the Parental Acceptance Questionnaire is suitable for mothers with children with special learning disabilities in Shiraz to measure this variable and its components and can meet the existing needs.
