| Abstract | The emotional and behavioral challenges posed by children with ADHD can significantly impact parents' psychological health and confidence in their parenting abilities. Resilience has been identified as a key factor that enhances parental self-efficacy, which is the belief parents have in their ability to handle the demands associated with raising ADHD children. This study aimed to evaluate parents' resilience levels, measure their self-efficacy in parenting, assess their well-being through stress, anxiety, and life satisfaction indicators, and examine how self-efficacy influences overall well-being. The research involved purposive sampling of mothers and fathers aged 25 to 45 who have children diagnosed with ADHD, while excluding parents with their own psychological disorders or those outside the specified age range. Data were collected using the Bharathiar University Resilience Scale (Anna Lakshmi, 2000),The research utilized the Parenting Sense of Competence Scale (Gibaud-Wallston & Wandersman, 1978) and the Well-being Index (World Health Organization, 1998) and found a strong, positive correlation between resilience and parental self-efficacy. More resilient parents reported lower levels of stress and anxiety and a higher level of satisfaction in life overall (Smith et al., 2020). The results of the research indicate that the psychological trait of resilience serves to protect and/or increase self-efficacy in the role of a parent and boosts overall psychological wellbeing. These results highlight the importance of fostering resilience to boost parental competence and mental health, suggesting a need for interventions aimed at helping parents cope with the challenges of raising children with ADHD. |
