This study examines QoL and related variables during the COVID\u201019 pandemic among two comparable groups: parents of children with ASD and parents of children with other diagnoses (non\u2010ASD).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Method<\/jats:title><jats:p>The sample included 175 Israeli parents (ASD\u2009=\u2009101; non\u2010ASD\u2009=\u200974). The parents were surveyed about the pandemic's effects on family life, child's function, and their own psychological distress, resilience, and QoL.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Parents in both groups reported deterioration in their child's academic, emotional, social, and functioning performance. However, higher psychological distress and more deterioration in child behaviour were reported in the ASD group. In both groups, QoL was positively associated with the introduction of distance learning and parental resilience and negatively associated with psychological distress, deterioration in the child's behaviour and functioning, and increased time spent with the child at home. An interaction analysis indicated that deterioration in a child's behaviour was linked to QoL solely within the ASD group, while home atmosphere was associated with QoL in the non\u2010ASD group.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>While the COVID\u201019 pandemic imposed similar challenges on both parental groups, there is evidence that it may have been more challenging for the ASD group. This calls for further examination concerning parents with special needs children, and accordingly, tailoring targeted and specific help for them.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/cch.13227","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,22]],"date-time":"2024-02-22T13:23:50Z","timestamp":1708608230000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Differential impact on parental quality of life: Comparing parents to children with autism spectrum disorder and those with other disabilities during the COVID\u201019 pandemic"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"50","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3045-2844","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Avital","family":"Laufer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Behavioral Science Netanya Academic College  Netanya Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Esther","family":"Isman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Education Bar Ilan University  Ramat Gan Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","volume-title":"Multiple regression: Testing and interpreting interactions","author":"Aiken L.
