Researchers have shown that certain demographic variables, family structures, and parenting strategies can predict the degree of satisfaction that a mother may experience with her children. This study looked at the relationship between some of these factors (i.e., maternal age, educational level, employment status, occupational prestige, marital status, living arrangements, number of children, age of oldest child, spank, reason, and praIse) and their predictive value to parental satisfaction using mothers participating in a federally funded Women, Infants, and Children program <W.I.C.). The relationship between parental satisfaction and parental acceptance/rejection was also examined. / Master of Science
