Abstract
This study investigates the relationship between various parental profile factors and the development of adaptive skills, functional academic skills, and communication skills in children with autism. The parental factors examined include age, gender, marital status, highest educational attainment, and monthly income. Using chi-square tests to analyze the data, the study found no significant associations between these parental demographics and the children's skills in any of the examined areas. The results consistently indicated p-values above the standard threshold for statistical significance (p < .05), leading to the conclusion that these specific parental factors do not significantly influence the adaptive, academic, or communication abilities of children with autism. The findings suggest that other factors, potentially related to individual characteristics of the children or specific educational interventions, may be more critical in shaping these skills. This study underscores the need for further research to explore these alternative influences to better understand and support the development of children with autism. https://doi.org/10.22010/wjher.4.2
