All studies included volunteer parents, of whom 95 per cent were female. CP is related to a higher prevalence of symptoms of depression and anxiety in parents. Factors such as a child's degree of functionality and socioeconomic level may influence the frequency of mental disorders in parents. However, these studies have heterogeneous samples and applied different criteria to characterize their populations. Depression and anxiety are more prevalent for parents of children with cerebral palsy (CP) than par...Continue Reading
