The aim of this study was to investigate the experiences of mothers of primary school learners diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The main determinant of parenting stress was contained in the primary symptoms of ADHD, namely, attention deficit, hyperactivity and impulsive behaviour, as well as in the disruptive effects on others in the immediate environment. The three primary symptoms of ADHD as listed above, often result in such secondary problems as learning deficiencies, poor self-image and inadequate social relations. Seven mothers of learners with ADHD were selected to participate in the empirical investigation. A qualitative research model was employed with specific use of a list of questions, participatory perception and unstructured interviews. Results obtained from the empirical research indicated that the symptoms of ADHD as manifested by the learners, as well as the accompanying secondary problems, impacted negatively on the mothers of these learners. / Educational Studies / M.

El presente trabajo de investigación tuvo como objetivo realizar un estudio bibliométrico de las tesis de grado sobre el Estrés Parental y Estilos de Afrontamiento en padres de hijos con Trastorno del Espectro Autista (TEA) en la base de datos Alicia Concytec comprendidos del año 2012 a 2021. Para ello, se realizó la búsqueda de las variables de investigación en la base de datos mencionada, hallando así 18 estudios preliminarmente de los cuales se seleccionaron 11 de ellos debido a que cumplían con los criterios de inclusión. Posteriormente, se efectuó el análisis bibliométrico de la información obtenida. Los resultados resaltan una alta cantidad de estudios cuantitativos, de corte correlacional y con la utilización de una misma técnica de recolección de información. A su vez, hubo una escasa cantidad de estudios cualitativos de corte fenomenológico. Por otro lado, se observó que todos los estudios cuentan con introducción y resumen del mismo. No obstante, se hace énfasis en fomentar la adición del acápite de sugerencias y limitaciones para investigaciones futuras. Se concluye así que la bibliometría es una rama fundamental para observar el estado real de la actividad científica y evidenciar los fenómenos a estudiar. Tal como este estudio lo realizó mediante el recojo de información de manera sistemática ayudando a la mayor comprensión y difusión de investigaciones relacionadas a estilos afrontamiento y estrés parental en universidades del Perú. / The objective of this research work was to carry out a bibliometric study of the degree theses on Parental Stress and Coping Styles in parents of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in the Alicia Concytec database from 2012 to 2021 To do this, the research variables were searched in the aforementioned database, finding 18 preliminarily, of which 11 were selected because they met the inclusion criteria. Subsequently, the bibliometric analysis of the information obtained was carried out. The results highlight a high number of quantitative studies, of correlational cut and with the use of the same information collection technique. In turn, there was a limited number of qualitative studies of a phenomenological nature. On the other hand, it is believed that all studies have an introduction and summary thereof. However, emphasis is placed on encouraging the addition of the suggestions and limitations section for future research. It is thus concluded that bibliometrics is a fundamental branch to observe the real state of scientific activity and to show the phenomena to be studied.

Working mothers face various challenges today, one of which is to be a mother, wife,caretaker and employee all at the same time. Fulfilling these challenging and sometimes demanding roles can contribute to role overload and conflict, which can have a negative impact on organisational effectiveness, as well as the overall wellbeing of the working mother. This dissertation outlines the relationship between personality dimensions, sense of coherence and the coping styles of working mothers from a salutogenic perspective. The Occupational Personality Questionnaire (OPQ), Orientations to Life Questionnaire (OLQ) and the Coping Orientations to the Problems Experienced (COPE) Questionnaire were used to measure the relationship between personality dimensions, sense of coherence and the coping styles of working mothers. The study was conducted with 102 working mothers representing different ethnic groups and occupational levels in different occupational fields and organisations. A theoretical relationship was established. The empirical investigation provided evidence of such a relationship and it seems that coping styles can be predicted from considering personality dimensions and sense of coherence. / Industrial & Organisational Psychology / M.A. (Industrial Psychology)
